Patience and Pomegranates

Pomegranate FruitThis year is the year- after about 5 seasons in the ground, the pomegranate held onto perhaps a third of its flowers, and is in the process of ripening seven or so decent-sized pomegranates!

Pomegranate CuttingsIt’s great when perennials finally start to bear, and it’s great to know that pomegranates seem to root readily from cuttings.  Of the seven cuttings I took in the spring – five I potted up, and two I stuck in the ground – seven rooted.  My plan is to create a hedgerow out at the border of the food forest – does anyone have a good resource for the ancient art of hedge laying?
