Pomegranate Trees are ornamental shrubs that grow up to 10 feet tall. They are grown in warm, dry climates and thrive in zones 7-10. Enjoy the beauty of their vibrant red flowers and delicious fruit.
Dwarf pomegranates are a type of pomegranate that is typically smaller than regular pomegranates. They can grow up to 6 feet tall, compared to the 10-15 feet of regular pomegranates.
- Dwarf pomegranates are also more cold-hardy than regular pomegranates, and can tolerate temperatures as low as 10 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Dwarf pomegranates are self-pollinating, so you only need one plant to produce fruit.
- Dwarf pomegranates are a good choice for growing in containers or small gardens.
- They can also be grown in the ground, but they will need to be protected from cold winters.
Dwarf pomegranates are a good option for people who want to grow pomegranates in a small space or in a cold climate. They are also a good choice for people who are new to gardening, as they are relatively easy to care for.
Here are some tips for caring for dwarf pomegranates:
- Plant the dwarf pomegranate in a sunny spot with well-drained soil.
- Water the dwarf pomegranate regularly, especially during hot, dry weather.
- Fertilize the dwarf pomegranate in early spring and again in late summer.
- Prune the dwarf pomegranate in late winter or early spring to shape the plant and remove dead or diseased branches.
- Protect the dwarf pomegranate from cold winters by covering it with a burlap sack or other protective material.
With proper care, dwarf pomegranates will produce delicious fruit for many years.
Note: The plant is shipped in its pot, firmly secured with several layers of clear tape, thereby avoiding any shuffling and moving during transit. The plant reaches you with minimal damage very safe and secure. We have been shipping plants like this for several years (plants are sometimes shipped in smaller pots for safety and ease of shipping). Most plants go dormant in Fall and Winter and will lose most of their leaves. Looking dead and dry, is very normal. The plant will flush out in Spring.
We cannot ship certain plants and some sizes to California due to restrictions placed by the California Department of Agriculture.
