'Walter/Palmer' Pair - #858

This one-of-a-kind tree stands apart from the rest. What you see in the photos are what you get, and there will never be another one like it.

I’m Walter the Texas Ebony, native to southern Texas and eastern Mexico. As part of the pea family, I can produce legume flowers when I'm older. My branches grow in an interesting zig-zag pattern.

I like direct to indirect bright natural light. To water, submerge my pot in water up to the rim for 10 minutes and then let me drain thoroughly. Submerge about once every 5-7 days and allow my topsoil to slightly dry before watering again. You can also check the weight of my pot and water when I'm 1/2 lighter. Please keep me in temperatures between 50 to 85F year-round. In the warm months I am happy to live outdoors. For good air circulation, put me in a room with a fan or open window as I like to feel the breeze.

Symbolism: The Texas Ebony is a tree of harmony; when placed in the East, this tree's symbolic Wood element is believed to balance and amplify this direction's nurturing energy. In Feng Shui Wood symbolizes development through a solid foundation. When coupled with its Chi, 'Zhen,' the Ebony illustrates vigor, determination, and the image of perseverance.

I'm Palmer the Dwarf Pomegranate, native to the Middle East and Mediterranean. I bloom red-orange flowers and bear fruits in summer. I'm tiny, which means my fruits are more decorative with lots of little fleshy seeds.

I do well in full to partial sun. I love being outside or near an open window when the weather is above 60F. In winter, make sure I am indoors, as I'm a tropical tree. Water me well by submerging my pot up to the rim for 5-10 mins, about once a week. I like it moist, so when my pot is 1/2 lighter or it's extremely hot/dry, water me. I'm easygoing, but require frequent pruning and fertilization to keep me healthy and blooming.

Symbolism: In the ancient Greek world, the pomegranate is the fruit of paradise, symbolizing life & immortality. You might recall pomegranate seeds playing a vital role in Persephone's abduction by Hades, when she eats these seeds against her will. Some claim this gave her the power of persistence amidst her abduction, with underlying representations of fertility and rebirth. In Feng Shui, Pomegranate's Wood element, vibrancy, and air purification ability increases overall spatial harmony. Its Chi, 'Zhen,' represents transformation and new beginnings. A Pomegranate may suit your home if you're looking for positive change and a refreshed outlook on life.
