Pomegranate Seeds

I ordered some pomegranate seeds off of eBay a few days ago and they arrived in the mail today.
I followed the instructions that came with the seeds, which directed me to soak the seeds in warm water for two hours and then plant them in loose/moist soil.

I didn't plant all of the pomegranate seeds so that I could save some of them. Just in case the seeds that I'm sprouting at the moment happen to NOT sprout for some awful reason.

I am also trying a totally different sprouting technique with three of the pomegranate seeds. I am trying to maximize my chances of having any of the seeds sprout. I will keep you updated on both of my seed sprouting processes and I will take plenty of pictures of my new pomegranate adventure.

My whole family has been begging me to grow them some pomegranates and finally the time has come and I'm super happy about it!

I will take pictures throughout the entire growing process of the pomegranate seeds so STAY TUNED! =)

See you soon!

The weather is still a little bit chilly for my taste.

I am so excited about this summer I can hardly wait! I know my yard is small and is already going to be full of vegetables, flowers, spare cages and fish tanks, turtle ponds, fish ponds, etc. but I am still anticipating a few plant and tree orders.

I plan on growing so many new plants and trees this Summer.

For example :

• Dwarf banana trees
• Blueberry plants
• Strawberry plants
• Nut trees
• Raspberry plants
• Wisteria vines
• Ground covers
• Russian mulberry trees
• and so much more!
