Default Re: 'Nana' Pomegranates

Cheryl,

How often do you fertilize your pomegranate plants and what kind of fertilizers do you use? My mom helped me grow one from seeds about five years ago; it's about 4 feet but has never bloomed.

I understand a pomegranate tree from a seed takes maybe 8 years to bloom and bear fruit. Another thing about this plant is that flowers grow on new shoots. My pomegranate doesn't bloom may have something to do with the fact that I have never trimmed mine. So how do you pinch or trim yours?

I'm growing pomegranate trees because my daughter loves pomegranates; any suggestions you have would help.
