11 cutting, $19.70 shipping (well packaged with an Agricultural certificate for California export) and $58 total. The S&H was a little high but am fine with the cert etc. I expect it wouldn’t go up much for a bunch more per box.

It's been 3 months... where's all the baby pom pics?
I just placed an order with Fruitwood today, because I need more pandemic projects. I even impulse-added some olives to my order.

Congrats!! I haven't ordered from the site since I made a lot of trade deals. The pom cuttings are so forgiving!
Will take a few pics and post later.

Here are a few pom cuttings from this year, last year, and seedlings (plants started from seeds). As you can see, the seedlings rock! I read that it takes about 3 years before they fruit, and I will wait to compare the fruit with the mother trees.
Here is a Yazd seedling from past Fall:

A black pom seedling on the far right in a 2 gal black pot and 2 rooted cuttings in a white cup and 1 gal pot, all from last year:

I was given some seeds from a wild black pomegranate located in California, two seedlings survived, the fruit from the black wild pomegranate sounds much better than most black pomegranates are.
I have over 60 pomegranate seeds that I have started the germination process for this year, none are black, I am germinating the seeds out of curiosity to see what I get. I have no idea how I am going to care for all of them, they came from 4 different pomegranate plants on the Island of Malta.
