Why Wonderful Pomegranate Shrubs?
The Wonderful Pomegranate Shrub grows quickly and produces large, flavorful harvests with minimal effort. It's incredibly low-maintenance, thriving in hot, dry climates and standing up to drought and infrequent watering with ease.
This variety is the most popular pomegranate in the U.S.—and for good reason. It flourishes in a range of soil types, naturally resists pests and drought, and is remarkably easy to care for. Once mature, a single shrub can yield over 100 pomegranates per season, giving you plenty to enjoy, store, or share.
Given the high cost of store-bought pomegranates, the Wonderful can save you hundreds of dollars annually. And the flavor? Nothing beats the sweet, sun-ripened taste of fruit picked straight from your backyard—often for nearly seven months out of the year.
Even better, these pomegranates don’t all ripen at once. You'll enjoy a steady, extended harvest season with fruit that stores longer and resists bruising and discoloration better than most varieties.
Limited yard space? No problem. These shrubs have non-invasive roots, making them ideal for planting near your home or along a fence. And with a lifespan of over 100 years, they’ll keep producing well into old age—without taking up much room.
Why Fast-Growing-Trees.com is Better
Seed-grown shrubs won't fruit until they mature. So, they can grow to be 12 feet tall and still not fruit.
We grow from cuttings taken from a mature mother shrub...proven to make exceptionally delicious fruit. This tried-and-true process is natural, ensuring the best -tasting fruit and faster fruit production. This process takes us a lot more time and work, which is why many nurseries don't do it. But the difference for you is amazing!
Your shrub has been continually pruned through its life, not just when we send it out. Now, you get more branches for more fruit.
But don't wait - start enjoying the beauty, health benefits, and unique flavor of this amazing fruit now. Order today while supplies are still available!
Pollination Info
Wonderful Pomegranate Shrub Pollination
Wonderful Pomegranate Shrubs are self-fertile. You will get fruit with only one plant. However, adding an additional pollinator will drastically increase the size of your crop. Below are the most effective pollinators we have chosen for your area...
Planting & Care
1. Planting: Pomegranates need full sun (6 to 8 hours of sunlight) and well-drained soil.
Make your hole twice the size of the root ball and just as deep. Carefully remove the shrub from its pot and gently comb the sides of the root ball with your hands to free up the roots a bit. Position the shrub into the hole and keep it straight as you begin to backfill the hole. Tamp down with your hands to prevent air pockets from forming around the root system.
Water the planting area well (but do not over-saturate the soil) and then spread a 2 to 3-inch layer of mulch to help conserve moisture.
If you're planting in a container, select a pot that will be large enough to grow the shrub and be sure it has multiple holes in the bottom. Place the shrub into the container and begin to fill in around the roots. Water your shrub and tamp down on the soil, eliminating any air pockets that may have developed while potting the shrub.
Note: This product grows best in well-draining soil. When you receive your plant, you may notice small, white beads or rocks in the soil - this medium is added to increase drainage and keep your plant happy and healthy!
2. Watering: Pomegranates have a good tolerance to drought conditions but will perform best in somewhat moist soil. Typically, you'll water once or twice weekly, but if you're not sure when to water, simply check the surrounding soil about 3 inches down. If the soil is dry here, it's time to water.
3. Fertilizing: Do not fertilize your shrub for the first year of growth. In the second year, fertilizer may be needed to supplement a slow-growing shrub. Apply 2 ounces of nitrogen in the spring and then an additional ounce each following year.
4. Pruning: Avoid doing any trimming in the shrub's first year of growth. When you're ready, prune any dead or damaged branches after the threat of frost has passed and before new growth begins. Also, you can shorten larger branches to more flowering. Low-growing leaves or branches can be removed at any time.
