What kind of pot is suitable for pomegranate tree?

Pomegranate tree pot

If the pomegranate tree is potted, it is best to grow it from a young plant, because the young tree has strong plasticity and can be cultivated according to personal preferences. The flower pot can also be selected according to preference. It is best to choose clay pots, purple clay pots, etc. This type of pot has better air permeability and is more suitable for the growth of the plant.

The pomegranate tree is a taproot plant with a relatively developed root system, so it is generally planted in a large and deep flowerpot. It needs to be planted deep, and the diameter of the flowerpot can be about 30-40 cm.

How to repot a pomegranate tree

1. Repotting method

It is recommended to bring along the original soil when digging up the pomegranate tree. This will protect the root system and reduce damage to the plant. If it is planted with bare roots, the plant will take longer to recover.

2. Prune the roots

When repotting the pomegranate tree, root pruning is needed at the same time. If dead roots, rotten roots, or old roots are seen, they need to be cut off in time to avoid consuming unnecessary nutrients. Remember to disinfect the wounds after pruning.

3. Post-change management

It is best to place the pomegranate tree that has just been repotted in a ventilated, sunny environment. Do not expose the plant to direct sunlight. Wait until the plant recovers and then move it to a sunny location for maintenance.
