More exotics can be grown in the UK as we get hotter summers and temperate winters. Why not try a Pomegranate or Punica granatum a large shrub or small tree.
Pomegranate tips
- Good drainage and a warm sunny wall position will help.
- The leaves are green coppery when young changing to yellow as they age with brilliant orange flowers.
- A showy variety Flore Pleno is worth growing even if the fruit don’t have time to ripen in poor summers
- Nana is a very low growing dwarf variety.
