Pomegranate in Zone 6

Here are a couple of the fruits that I got in early November.

I’m northern Utah zone 6b/7a depending on the year. I have over 10 varieties of cold hardy pomegranate trees growing in the ground. All have survived without die-back. I protect for the first 3 years with caged straw then no protection. Any that have been in the ground for 3 years are blooming and producing fruit. Salavatski, Suhr Anor, Kazake, have all ripened to suffienct sweetness. Parfianka did not develop full flavor before the tree went dormant. Others still to come. Make sure they are getting good sunlight and that you fertilize heavily with phosphate in the early springtime. You should be seeing fruit now.

Those would be some amazingly hardy plants, the claims are outrageous but I hope they are true. @RedSun says he has the “hardy” varieties listed, curious as to whether he ever planted them in the ground. Any success/promising results? Any die-back?
