Pomegranate Salavatski Includes (4) Four Plants

Update: 9/7/2024 My 4 trees are still doing great. After transplanting some did loose all their leaves but came back looking very healthy. I’ve put 2 into larger containers and will try 1 in the ground to see if it can overwinter here in Nashville, TN. Previously; My 4 tiny trees arrived in great shape, healthy and beautiful. The packaging was great and it kept the trees safe. I followed the advice from the online site and placed each one into its own 1 gallon container. So far all seem to be doing great. They don’t like to be too wet I’ve noticed.

I bought these plants 2 years ago in spring 2021 (it's now spring 2023). I’m in Zone 7B. I followed the recommendation of the grower/seller and put them in a small pot for the summer; then once they grew bigger, I put them into the ground at the end of summer. The plants were only a couple inches tall when they arrived. The plant is now well over 5 feet tall. Very healthy and beautiful, with bright yellow-green foliage in spring. I only kept two plants and gave two away to my neighbor. Both of mine are still alive, and so are his is. All three are luscious and growing well. Both of mine are in part shade. My neighbor’s is in full sun. All three plants are roughly the same size, although the one plant that I placed in more shade is perhaps a half foot smaller. I feed occasionally with Espoma citrus fertilizer once a month and liquid kelp from time to time or Myco+. No fruit yet because obviously the tree is still too small. I put tomato cages over both of mine last year to give them some support and to keep them from sprawling. So did my neighbor. He removed his cage, and the tree is standing up on its own, with a nice structure. Here’s what one of mine looks like now. Update: My neighbor’s plant is now bearing deep crimson-orange flowers this June 2023, after only three seasons in the ground (planted summer 2021). Hopefully, he can expect fruit come fall. Update: Both of my neighbor’s pomegranate trees are covered in pomegranates!!! I’ll try to post a pic soon.

Not worth the time and money! Transplanted the whips to a 6-inch pot, placed under a grow light and watered every other day. All 4 plants died within 10 days.

Tiny plugs looked healthy. But, they all promptly dropped all their leaves when planted in pots and looked dead. I waited and waited and only one recovered and has come back to life. Pulled the other 3 and they had dead roots. But, I’m going to reorder and try again.

I ordered a 4-pack each of Chicago Hardy Fig and Salavatski Pomegranate: all 8 plants were a very healthy 6+ inches tall and well hydrated for their delivery to my New Mexico high desert location They’re doing well in their containers, acclimating to the mile high sunlight and producing new leaves and height It’ll be the fall when I put them in the ground, and I think they’ll work out just fine in my yard

I’ve received “Live plants” in the mail before and many end up being a spindly little twigs with a couple roots wrapped in a moist paper towel. These are good healthy plants that arrived in small potting containers full of soil. This seller starts you off right with a great head start vs cuttings. I wish everyone selling a plants did as good as these people. A+ and highly recommended!

What a disappointment when I received the plants. The plants in the picture had much more leaves, looked healthier, and were much taller than the plants I received. The plants I got were only 2 inches tall and half of their leaves were missing due to horrible packaging.

Very professional packaging that survived a black, hot mailbox for a day lol... all 4x plants were extremely robust and after a week in bad soil they have quadrupled in size. Washington DC region outside beltway, full sun 12+ hours in early June '24. Heavy rain, high drainage on a 45-degree slop. Clay/sand "crap soil." Results may vary but my 4 were happy and vibrant! 😊
