dwarf pomegranate
Punica granatum var. nana
Overview
Dwarf pomegranate is an evergreen shrub that features dense foliage and profuse blooms of brilliant red flowers. Its low-growing habit makes it an ideal choice for garden borders, groundcovers, or as a potted plant. The stunning fruit follows the flowers, with small bright orange globes packed full of sweet red seeds. The plant should be grown in full sun for best results and prefers soil that is moderately fertile and well draining. Dwarf pomegranate can be pruned for shape and size control, making it ideal for small garden spaces. Its showy blooms make it an excellent choice for brightening up any area.
