Thanks for all the suggestions for potted fruit plants last month. I
have decided to try a pomegranate. That is it attractive and
drought-tolerant tipped the scales. That and that I've never seen one
grown. (We all explore fruit in our own ways.) If it fails to thrive,
I will grow a second citrus,
It will be Punica granatum "nana" or "eversweet".
Has anyone ever tried to keep the eversweet small? I have 2 to 2.5
gallons of pot-space, and 3.5' of headroom above the soil-line in my
sunny window. I would like to try to "eversweet" if there's a
reasonable chance of success.
Oh, and thanks to whomever suggested alpine strawberries. I have
ordered a bunch, and will go out and buy a planter soon.
Best,
