Planted two 4-inch peat pots containing rooted Pomegranate (Punica granatum) cuttings. Before putting 3 inches of fine-textured natural bark on the top of the planters, I sprinkled Triazicide granules sparsely on the soil to kill any grubs that might attack the developing roots; plus a 1/8 cup of 46-0-0 Urea in a 5-inch diameter circle around the cutting, and a 1/4 cup of 0-0-22 K-Mag on the outside perimeter of the tree rings shown in the photos.
Pomegranates "Golden Globe" and "White Flower":
After putting down the bark, I spread Slug & Snail granules around the perimeter of the planters to keep them away from the new plants, and also installed rings of garden welded-wire fencing to keep browsing pests from sampling the plants. In the background behind the pomegranates is my Bababerry (a raspberry variety) patch, which has grown to 6 feet high!
