When does pomegranate blossom?

Pomegranate usually blooms once a year in February, May and the lunar calendar 10.

Pomegranate has three flowering periods, but in these three flowering periods, only the flowers that bloom in May of the lunar calendar can bear fruit, and the flowers that bloom in the other two periods are deceptive. In addition to bearing fruit, pomegranate flowers that bloom in May of the lunar calendar have a long flowering period, which can last until early or middle July.

Pomegranate flowers are very bright in color, showing a single orange, with at most seven petals and at least five petals. According to different varieties, its petals are divided into single petals and double petals. If analyzed from the viewing degree, the double pomegranate flower is more ornamental, because it can give people a feeling of overlapping flowers in the fog, or a feeling of elegance.

How to prolong the flowering period

In order to prolong the flowering period of pomegranate grown at home, it is necessary to control the intensity and quantity of light and water. Different from other flowers, pomegranate flowers need more light when they bloom, so only by providing sufficient light can their flowering period be prolonged, so we should move pomegranate to full light when it blooms. Watering follows the principle of dry but not wet, because pomegranate is cold-resistant, too much watering at flowering stage will easily lead to petal shedding and shortened flowering period.
