The “Wonderful” pomegranate is the classic backyard favorite—celebrated for its extra‑large, ruby‑red fruit packed with sweet‑tart juice and jewel‑bright arils, plus a naturally high antioxidant content that makes every harvest as healthy as it is delicious. This self‑pollinating variety is a heavy producer, and has decent drought‑tolerant once established, thriving in Zones 7‑10 with minimal fuss. Plant your tree in full sun, in well‑drained soil, and water deeply but infrequently to encourage a strong root system; a light spring pruning keeps the canopy open for air flow and bigger fruit. In the first year, mulch to retain moisture and protect young roots, and feed with a balanced organic fertilizer in early spring for vigorous growth. With a little care, your “Wonderful” will reward you with fragrant orange‑red blossoms in late spring and baskets of glossy, flavor‑packed pomegranates each fall—perfect for fresh eating, juicing, or festive décor.
Ideal Growing Conditions
USDA Hardiness Zones: 7-10
Cold Protection: Protect young plants if temperatures drop below 40°F. Mature plants can endure brief periods of cold down to 12°F.
Sun: Full sun is ideal for vigorous growth and abundant fruiting
Soil: While pomegranates thrive in rich, compost-heavy soils, it can grow well in a variety of soils if amended with some compost.
Water: Keep soil moisture consistent. Does not like waterlogged or heavily saturated soils. Easily susceptible to root rot. Once established, they are fairly drought-tolerant.
Fertilizer: Mature trees do well with a few applications of fertilizer a year. Young plants benefit from a granular fertilizer mixed into the planting hole for a good start.
