A few years on and our Pomegranate shrub, 7ft tall, has a number of flower

Don't hold out any chance of fruit but how are others doing?
Pomegranates don't seem to have a problem flowering in the UK. There
used to be a couple of 2m+ double-flowered pomegranate bushes near the
abbey ruins in Lesnes Abbey Park garden (SE London) which flowered well
every year. But that was in the 90s, and I haven't been there for many
years.
But
AFAIK pomegranates don't fruit in the UK.
