For those who have grown pomegranates, I have a bit of a dilemma. I made the mistake of planting 3 pomegranate trees too close together. I don't know what I was thinking. But now I'm considering removing the one in the middle, which is the oldest and tallest tree, so the two small ones on the side can have more sunlight and space to grow. If I go ahead and cut the middle tree down to the ground, will it just die, or will it continue to sprout up? If the latter, does that mean I'll have to try to pull up the whole root ball?
Thanks!
