Summary

UC Davis is located in Davis, California, this site has a silty clay loam soil and plants are irrigated with potable water. More information about the field sites is located in the Nuts & Bolts section.

Similar to Cool Glow Lime, Cool Glow Pomegranate yielded a statistically significant difference in overall appearance between the 80% and 50% treatments compared to the 20% treatment, with the 80% treatment performing significantly better in terms of foliage quality than the 20% treatment. Since there was no statistically significant difference between the overall appearance and foliage quality of the 80% and 50% treatments, we recommend Nandina Cool Glow Pomegranate as a Moderate water-user in WUCOLS Region 2
