Performer of the month August 2020 – Pomegranate trees
Pomegranate is a sweet & juicy fruit. This tree can easily grow in a container and with minimum care, anybody can expect fruit from this plant. I planned to grow this tree. But as we ate many pomegranate fruits every afternoon on our rooftop in December – January months in 2018-2019. We used to keep all wastage in a broken clay pot. So after a few weeks, we noticed three seedlings in those pots. I allowed those pomegranate seedlings to grow and after 2-3 months I transplanted all those plants in separate pots. From this year, surprisingly all those trees started producing fruits. Throughout August, there were plenty of beautiful red coloured flowers on my pomegranate trees. Now I saw there are a few fruits on those trees. So this month pomegranate trees are the performer of the month of August 2020.
