Just finished watching your video here in Maryland and immediately went to Etsy and ordered from you. Thank you so very much for your informative video! Looking forward to adding pomegranate to my fruit collection. Can't wait to see your findings on the other varieties you are trying. Happy growing!
Thank you so much!
Wow! Good Job! Thank you for sharing. I will try the Salavatski next year in Zone 6. Best greetings from germany. 🍀

well done!
-ilov the way you tiered in just there.. beautiful!
Thank you
I’m considering planting Russian pomegranate in Maryland. This was very helpful. Answered all my questions and brought up good points I hadn’t thought of
Glad it was helpful!
I live just south of you in Hanover and have the same pomegranate variety planted. Thanks for sharing this video.
Thanks neighbor, that’s cool, I can’t wait for spring to plan more of other varieties sitting in the greenhouse.
Good stuff 👍
Thanks 👍
As always thank you for the videos. You have helped me so much with my garden. Here in the DMV still babying my pomegranate shrub😅. I purchased it last winter and put it out in a pot this spring. I plan on leaving it in a pot for it’s first winter outside until I decide exactly where I want it planted. I guess I will mulch the pot😅 I am going to purchase a second one to help with pollination as you mentioned.
thank you Brandi, if you planning to leave the pot outside for the first winter I would put it against house wall with the most sun. else I would put it in the garage or the house since it your first pom tree 🙃 good luck!
@@ItsJustGardening Thanks again!
you got a a new shovel! sponsorships must me going well lol.
i would love to try one of the ripe pomegranates.
I wish there sponsoship for my shovel, my favorate shovel broke 🙃got this one at harbor frieght for cheap. LOL.
I'll let you know when to come and do taste test lol .. .probably October since these are late bloomer.
The Lang Jujube is rippen if you want to come and pick some.

If you are interested in my Salavatski Russian pomegranate plant or cuttings check out my Etsy shop in description. I sometime post them up there and on Facebook too.
Nice job I know you visited Jimmy garden. I would like to visit the garden. I also live in Springfeild Va
Great info ,
We r planning to move to Charlotte sure I will buy this variety & take more tips for you &
Please do let us know what other tropical hardy varieties that can we grow ?
Thank you for the support. I have a video of a pomegranate collection I'm planning to test but haven't put them in the ground yet, th-cam.com/video/1BUVXUO48Lk/w-d-xo.html. You can also try the wonderful variety as well. I had them in the ground that i grew from seed and survived. However, its best to grow them against a south facing wall against the house.
This video was so helpful!! I’m in Leesburg and I have a potted 2 year old (maybe 3?) Russian pomegranate tree. I’m scared to plant it in our backyard but this video gave me some confidence. Can I do it in fall or does it have to be spring?
I would recommend putting in spring to give the root system time and growth to adapt. Check out my latest pomegranate video in Centerville. It show the largest pomegranate I’ve ever seen around here. Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much! I'll be planting parfianka in the spring. Do you think that variety will do fine? I also got a wonderful variety this summer and i have it in the garage in a pot overwintering. Do you think I can put this in the ground as well? I'm in the same area.
Nice I was looking to get a parfianka and try it, I think it should be ok in zone 7 since that’s what they claimed to be. I am testing wonderful right now, with the seedling as I mentioned in the video, but they do died back last year the one I gave to my friend. However this spring I’m planning to plant the wonderful against the south wall of my house and will give it some protection if weather drops down to teen. I’m also got other 6 varieties as well and planning to test it in 2023. If you are local would love to trade some cuttings for my salavatski if you interested.
@@ItsJustGardening I just got today, bare root, afganski variety. It tolerates our humid summers well and is apparently cold hardy.
I planted a dwarf pomegranate beginning of spring in ground here zone 7A Tennessee
Cool what variety?
@@ItsJustGardening don't know purchased it from lowes just said dwarf pomegranate
@@odomshomestead hmm interesting didn't know Lowes carried pomegranate this far north.
@@ItsJustGardening online order
Have you had any luck with wonderful or Angel Red? I ask because I live in Maryland, just outside of DC, wanting to know. lovely video.
I’m testing wonderful seedling right now, so far they survived that last winter. I haven’t got my hand on angel red yet, but Jimmy Va in Springfield vaguely recalled that his pomegranate is angel red, his tree is 15ft plus tall. Thanks
i have this same Russian Pomegranate growing here for 3 years now in New Jersey central to be exact. ZONE 6B and been getting fruits since first year
nIcE. How big was your tree when you got it ?
@@ItsJustGardening mine was about 1ft
Wow that nice to have fruits that small
@@ItsJustGardening when u usually pick yours off the tree? First year I picked too early. Second year too late. This year its still on tree waiting for the last week of this month to pick.
@CashNYC I usually pick in end of October into mid November, but if we get rains it would start to split that’s when I pick them all.
I have young wonderful variety I started from seed this past spring in central Alabama zone 7b. Wondering if I should bring indoors or go ahead and plant? About the size of the one your holding.
I would bring indoor, and if you want to push the limit I would plant it next year against south facing wall of the house and protect it each winter.
Hey man thanks for the guide! Have you tried to grow other varieties besides the salavatski? I’m in silver spring and have on in the yard but it dies back to the ground every winter.
Hi, I have other varieties that I haven’t put in the grown yet. I gave my friend in silver spring a cloned of my salavatski and they been doing fine for years. Salavatski suppose to bo fine in our zone, peopel grow this In Pennsylvania as well, since your keep dying back I start to question if it even a salavatski. You might want to try and protect it in the winter or relocate it to your south facing wall and plant it next to your house so the heat of the house can keep it alive in winter. If you want my plan send me an email I give you one.
Yup, it’s a Parafinka. Just sent you the email!
I had no idea that I could grow them in zone 7. Please post a follow up video. I never plant my trees that deep below the pot line. I know to make a 30 dollar hole for a 10 dollar tree and I do dig deep to give the roots a good start. I just always try to keep the line of where the trunk meets the soil in the pot the same when I put it in the ground. It appeared in the video that you went much deeper. I’m interested to see how it does.
Thanks for watching, you could grow cold hardy pomegranate in zone 7, I have been growing them for awhile now and I’m have 6 more different variety that’s waiting to be plant this year. In term of how deep to plant your tree is depend on the type of tree. With pomegranate it’s ok to plant it deep because eventually they will develop roots, it’s like propagating. Some other fruit tree it is not recommended to plant below where grafted area is or else it will rot. I will def make a update video on my pomegranates collection.
Have you tried 'kazake' or 'suhr anor'? They have done equally as well as 'salavatski' in my zone 7b NC climate. All 3 are very cold hardy.
I have them in pot haven’t have a chance to put them in ground yet
You may want to add trace mineral fertilizer. It may sweeten the fruit.
Cool thanks for the tips, I might try it.
What’s the coldest it gets there? I’m moving to the mountains so I’m wondering if I can grow them as well
I’m in zone 7 we can go down to 0 F
Ok.I have a Nitkitski Ranni potted I want to bring to the Greenville Sc area. That’s 7b. I should be good I would think.
I’m in Northern Florida but it got down to 19 here last Winter. It did fine with that.
what in that red cup you put to tree hole? thanks
It 10-10-10 general fertilizer. Thanks
Now I want it back 🤣🤣🤣
😂
Hi. Do you sell any of the trees? I'm in Loudoun County and I wouldn't mind driving to buy a cut from you.
Hi, you can email me, it’s in the description. Thanks
I’m in zone 6b , I bought last year from Willis orchards two varieties that claim to be cold hardy down to zone 6 .. they are surh-anor and Nikitski rani…. They did make it through the winter with damage to young shoots … was wondering if you have any of these varieties and what you think of them?
Hi. thanks for sharing, I don't Nikitski Rani, I just got my hand on the surh-anor last year, and I haven't decided whether to put them in the ground yet. Glad to hear they survived zone 6. Here is the list of pomegranates I got last year that I plan to test in zone 7 th-cam.com/video/1BUVXUO48Lk/w-d-xo.html.
@@ItsJustGardening I saw your video you sent the link to… I will look forward to future videos of updates on your new trees! At least you know surh-anor can withstand my winters (although it was a mild winter) I’m in Ct.. I love pomegranates and I would love to have a pomegranate farm!! I’m so jealous that you more than likely can do it over me! Sending good vibes your way on your future trees!! I’m all for in ground !! I have been working on building a food forest for the past three years! My jostaberries, gooseberries,currants, and aronia berries are just beginning to bloom !! I planted them with many of my fruit trees the year before last.. and this will be my first fruiting of all berries listed above! If your interested in adding some cool deliciousness to your garden may I suggest an excellent nitrogen fixer (the goumi berry) that is next on my list. From the research I have done the Tillamook variety is the biggest and best but hard to get!! Good planting my friend!
@@heatherperry2176 yea I want a pomegranate farm too :) i need more land. Thanks for the suggestion on the berry, your fruit forest sound awsome already, hope it's bountiful this year. :)
we in the same zone and mine going on 3 years growing with fruits since
18:00 will this cause the new tree to produce more fruit?
You referring to hand pollination? Yes it would help with setting more fruits and keeping the fruits from immature droppings.
Did you plant the big and small in the same hole for pollination? Are they the same salavatski variety? Thanks
Yes they are the same, thanks for watching
@@ItsJustGardening good to know, thanks. So it was for pollination or no?
Pomegranate is self pollinated, I planted both cuz I have extra.
Ok cool, thank you. Smart
@ItsJustGardening so you can plant them that close and both will thrive and not compete?
Are the seeds really hard? How can I chew pomegranate seeds?
They are Hard seeds, you can still chew them.
Can you grow salavatski pomegranate in Zone 6 to 7
Im in zone 7 and they do fine, zone 6 read you need some protection.
My issue is my Russian pomegranate doesn't want to break dormancy. When I prune it to check the wood for life it appears based on color etc to be alive but here we are almost in june and it still looks dormant. Do you know the issue? I left it outside but during very cold weather I brought it in at night in a cold area when it was too cold outside but within an acceptable temperature. Its Its obviously not dead just wont produce new growth.
This happened to me once when I first time I have mine in the ground, it would not come out of dormancy in June. I think it’s because of the ground was not warm enough. This year all of mine broke dormancy really early in April because of the early warm weather. Now they all flowering already. So just give it time and leave it in a greenhouse or cold frame.
@@ItsJustGardening thanks for your reply. Its actually in a pot and the soil temperature is right. But I'm definitely going to give it a chance to do something since its still alive.
I live in northern GA and it currently gets to around 40 degrees at night. Do you think these cold hardy poms like Salavatski and Crimson Sky are okay to plant in the fall?
If you have them in the pot right now I would wait until spring to plant them outside. GA weather should be fine for these cold hardy pomegranate. I would try wonderful pomegranate as well when spring time.
@@ItsJustGardening We do get some freezes, and it gets down to 20ish. I believe I've read Wonderful may not work for that, too cold. Do you do wonderful where you live? The softer seeds sound appealing. Thanks for the response.
@@gameenders5017 I’m testing wonderful seedling right now. Check your zone if your in zone 8 I think wonderful works. I planted wonderful seedling outside last year where we dropped to 10F it died back, but came back in spring. So my theory a mature wonderful with little protection in my zone 7 may survive.
@@ItsJustGardening We get some nights near zero if you factor wind chill. I've heard a lot of people say wonderful dies for them in weather not quite as cold as that so IDK. But I wonder if like a fig, you cut it down significantly and have heavy mulch if that might be enough for it to survive until spring. I'd be curious because savatski and crimson sky are very cold hardy, but I hear the cold hardy also have pretty hard seeds, soft seeds would be desirable. Thanks for your input.
Everyplace claims wonderful can do zone 8. So I think if you can plant it against the south facing wall of the house then it will have high chance of surviving. Then cover it’s with frost cloth or plastic tarp if the temp going to drops below 20F. In regarding cutting them back like figs, it will not produce fruits because flowers/fruits come from last year branches and when heavy pruning is done it affects flowering and fruiting and the tree would just focusing on pushing out growth.
Hello I would like to see that you have the pomegranate tree for sale.i live in Richmond VA.
Hi, please send me message via email, it’s in the description.
why don't remove water shoot ?
Not sure what you mean water shoot ?
Can you update with the taste of this Russian pomegranate? I heard it’s not as good as other varieties. I want to avoid all the labor and effort if it doesn’t has great flavor. Thank you
