Some time ago I spilled some pomegranate seeds in the patio between
the house and the garage. Many sprouted and became plants. I live in
the Northern suburb of the Nations capitol. Every winter they would
die and then come back in spring and summer with long thorns and
beautifull leaves. They were about 3' high when I decided to
remove(gee long main root) them and put them elswhere. Looked like
couple of them were doing alright but I am not sure they will survive
this winter colds in the field.

I had bought one as a houseplant which went out in the summer, came
back into the house when it got cold. That produced beuatifull
flowers and even couple of fruits (not very big though and not
edible). The only problem is the mealey bugs got to the plant as long
as it is in the house. Unfortunately I forgot to bring that in this
winter and lost that as well.

My children saved some pomegranate seeds a few weeks ago, and forget about
them. I found them behind the computer, still slightly sticky but almost
dry, and two have tiny shoots. I'd like to take a shot at growing these,
just for fun, and I wonder if there are any special tips or should I just
experiment? I happen to have a bag of cactus compost in hand, which would
seem like a good medium. Any suggestions?
