Pomegranate is an exotic antioxidant and one of the superfruits. It is rich in nutrients which makes it popular around the world and the seeds are an excellent source of fibre.
They are several varieties of Pomegranate. In Guyana they are basically the standard variety which can be planted into the earth.
Remember you have to prune this tree to maintain the height of 5 – 6 feet. There is also a dwarf variety (almost a novelty) which because of its small nature can be maintained as a potted plant. Pomegranate trees can be planted from the seeds.
Now you know how beneficial Pomegranate is, it is time to plant a tree in the backyard!
Until next week, happy gardening.
