Desertnyi Pomegranate - Rooted Cutting - Citrus Flavors

I am selling the exact rooted cutting pictured of the Desertnyi pomegranate variety.  The arils of this type dark red, contrasting nicely with its lighter-colored rind.  It is relatively late season, the seeds are soft (I just eat them), and quite tasty with a balance of sweet and tart flavors with a unique citrusy element.  Only 200 chill hours required.  All of our plants are raised outdoors where they can bask in the warm Texas sun, so I can assure you that this plant is tough and acclimated to outdoor conditions.  As with any plant, the general recommendation is to give it a little TLC on arrival, possibly keeping it out of direct sun for a few days, but it is already hardened to outdoor conditions. It will be perfectly fine to continue growing in the current pot until you see evidence of the roots dipping out from the bottom, but if you want to carefully up-pot it it will likely grow a little faster as the roots have more room to expand.

Your plant will come as-is in the pot featured in the photo.  I have had mixed experiences receiving plants with loose or wrapped soil, so I believe it is worth the extra cost to me to ensure their roots remain undisturbed and they are ready for you to transplant after they arrive.  This plant should continue to do fine in its pot until you start seeing roots creep out of the bottom, but it will naturally grow faster if it can spread into a larger space.  As many others have noted, there is frequent exposure to FMV among the community, and, while I don't see any serious signs of issues with disease in my plants other than some leaf spots from the winter on older leaves, beware of the possibility of mild manifestations which resolve effortlessly.

Unfortunately I cannot ship to Alaska, Hawaii, or internationally.
