2 pomegranate Trees Arrived

[Nyboy]

Mailman just dropped off 2 tiny trees !! After seeing video of @pax12 ripe fruit in zone 6 I ordered 2 trees from Amazon. The only name listed for them was dwarf patio. While they are suppose to both be same there is a big difference in color. Not sure if my cheap camera can show difference in shade of color.

Tree on left much lighter shade green.

The difference is visible. Perhaps with yellow leaves stood somewhere on the edge. He grew up in a container or a transplant before the sale? In any case, it must start growth. Then it will be clearly seen. If all the new leaves are green, this indicates a good acclimatization. If the yellow leaves will strew perhaps something with the roots.

They where cheap, looking at it as practice trees.

Color right now isn't an indicator of different varieties. One could have been packaged longer than the other or one could have been moved for packaging while the other was still in the light.

I would expect both have had the same nutrients so that shouldn't be a factor either. Yup! I think it's just a matter of exposure to sun. Give them a bit of time and they should both color up the same.

They look good! The lighter color could just mean it was wrapped for shipping a couple days before the other one. I would start with some careful pruning-just a little at a time. Do not repot for quite some time. Keep in filtered light for a bit and then move to stronger light slowly.

Thanks cat I was going to repot this week LOL Now I will wait.
