Kara Bala Miursal Pomegranate - Punica granatum

Kara Bala Miursal is a deep red variety of pomegranate. The fruit grows very large and the arils are speckled with a sweet and sour taste. It is self-fertile but improve your crop with two or more varieties! This type needs 250 chill hours below 50 degrees Fahrenheit to produce. For container growing, prune pomegranates as a bush with 3 to 6 main trunks and top them off to keep the height manageable.

• Average mature height: 8-15 feet
• Light: Full sun is ideal, but pomegranates will be fine in mostly sunny conditions too.
• Soil: Pomegranates adapt to most well-drained soils. They can grow in nutritionally poor soil but they do best in loamy soil.
• Zones: Perennial 6-11 (Pomegranates love warm, tropical climates but can take some cold without getting severely injured.)

Plant Size
A baby plant, that is 3-8 inches tall, will arrive at your home in a 3-inch-deep pot. Then, raise your new baby to maturity under your caring, green thumb.
