Thompson Morganfruit Pomegranate Punica Granatum Provence 5 Litre Potted Plant X 1 Red

Elevate your garden with the enchanting Pomegranate 'Provence', a self-fertile tree adorned with glossy foliage and vibrant orange flowers that bloom throughout summer. These flowers give way to leathery-skinned, brown fruits that ripen during mild autumns, ready for harvesting in October and November. Indulge in the sweet-sharp flavour of the fleshy fruits, perfect for enhancing both desserts and Savory dishes, or extracting fragrant juice. Despite its association with warmer climates, 'Provence' proves surprisingly hardy in the UK, tolerating temperatures down to -15C (5F) when grown in a sheltered position. Alternatively, it can thrive in a large container, offering flexibility to move it to a warmer spot during winter months. With a height of 3m (10') and spread of 1.5m (5'), this multi-stemmed tree adds both aesthetic appeal and culinary delight to your outdoor space.
