Costco Wonderfuls

Post by greenfig »

These were gigantic! I bought them to taste.
They were good and ripe. Not like Parfianka but since they were the only available, very acceptable.

I love Costco's Kirkland brand pomegranate juice, have you tried it? Probably the best value for your money.

How long did the seeds typically take to germinate?

This is great to know! I have some of the seedlings I've been wanting to try germinating but haven't had the time yet. Knowing this kind of motivates me lol

They also grow quite fast. A third year seedling is about 4-5 ft tall now.
