Do you think the roots grew that way because only select ones grew into the ground and those were the ones that thickened?I had time to transplant the tree on post # 198 this morning.
Its rootage.

It has a big root with other smaller roots.

The big root was shortened. I had to use a big handsaw to cut it. It is a change to study the pomegranate's root system.

The tree was stabilized in the clay pot with twine.

Done. As you can see. I am using a big pot to build up the tree's strength for training later on.

Thank you for your kind words.Do you think the roots grew that way because only select ones grew into the ground and those were the ones that thickened?
Thanks, I’ll have a read. Mine is just young stock though at this point lol, I need to forget about it for a few years.@ConorDash As you now own a Punica, i think you'll find this thread and @bonhe's work of interest
To let the pomegranate grow fast, one should put it into the big pot . It’s rootage is needed to have a stable temperature environment for it to grow.Thanks, I’ll have a read. Mine is just young stock though at this point lol, I need to forget about it for a few years.
It is in a pond basket, hopefully the holes in the sides will help. It’s lost all leaves now I believe.

You are welcome. And remember to give it a lot of fertilizer and sunlight ?Thanks. Either that or I’d like to plant it in the ground.. needs a good few years of fattening.
Thanks.I always look forward to your posts, thanks for sharing. Do you bring any of your poms indoor at any point or is your winter relatively mild?
Thanks.
Because the average temperature is about 45 degrees of F in winter, I let all of my trees outside.

I think I have to repot my small Punica group planting into a big pot next spring.To let the pomegranate grow fast, one should put it into the big pot... ...
If you have Púnica granatum Nana, it grows very slow. Putting it in bigger pot will help it grow faster.I think I have to repot my small Punica group planting into a big pot next spring.
I am waiting for the branches to thicken two years now but in vain....
I might say that it gives a feeling like it's suffocating into a triangular cage...... ...I don’t like it’s shape but it is ok for now.
You are completely right! This tree is one of the first materials which I practiced when I just liked this hobby.I might say that it gives a feeling like it's suffocating into a triangular cage...
Is it the tree on post #104?
