Fig Tree and Pomegranate

Question

Can I grow a pomegranate tree in Pittsville, Md.? Should it be covered in winter? My fig tree isn’t producing fruit. It’s 2 yrs old but looks healthy.

Answer 1

Pomegranate trees are considered hardy in zones 7-10, so it should be ok in your area, though wrapping the tree or providing mulch for additional protection will help during winter. Also, make sure that it receives plenty of sunlight and is well protected from winds.
