Below you can see the FULL tree. She's a bush tree lol!!! She takes up this whole corner of the food forest. We planted her about 10 years ago. Wonderful variety is planted nearby.

We’ve been watching this Dixie sweet pomegranate in the backyard closely for flowers. Just now..we walked up to her and saw her gorgeous red flowers in multiple stages of bloom. We captured it to share with steepshot and steemit! Enjoy! This is our last fruit to ripen in the food forest. We enjoy them in the fall around October and November.

Below is an image...capturing our son River...harvesting his first pomegranate from this tree....last October. PURE JOY!

We have a pomegranate tree in a garden in greece, unfortunately the soil doesnt seem right, so it refuses to grow properly.
