A Couple Pom varieties to help send my students to the Amazon
Posted: Mon Nov 04, 2019 8:55 pm
Hi folks,
I've got two students who are raising money to come with a class I teach to the Peruvian Amazon this spring - I'm helping them out by offering to give them the money from my pomegranate and fig cuttings this year, so if anybody is interested, I've got the following varieties available for a donation. Some of these are really cold hardy - more hardy than Salavatski.
Salavatski
Uzbek (the most cold hardy pom I've been able to find - I've only got a couple small cuttings of these)
Eight Ball - Hardy Black Pom - haven't trialed it in-ground here yet, but survives in 8a in SC
Melgar - the famous black pomegranate from https://permies.com/t/50248/Growing-Bla ... nate-Fruit
And Deve Disi - another very hardy one, original mother plant was from Turkey, I think.
Let me know if you're interested - I'll probably post additional varieties soon. As much as I love trades, I'm focusing on getting my students to the Amazon at the moment!
