173 Madrone
Picture
If you think coast redwoods are the only trees along Madrone Ave., think again! A close look at the neighborhood reveals many surprises. This pomegranate tree is one of them.

Pomegranate is native to Iran and northern India. Full sun is usually the requirement for optimum fruit production. This tree doesn’t get that, but manages to produce a crop of medium size fruit anyway.

Pomegranate is a deciduous tree typically growing slowly to around 20 ft. There are several fruiting varieties to choose from and several more that don’t produce tasty fruit, but are grown for their ornamental value as a small tree or shrub.
