Description

The ‘Nana‘ Pomegranate is all about ornamental charm in a perfectly petite package. While its tiny fruits are tart, it is prized for its continuous display of vibrant orange-red flowers and dense, compact form. It‘s the ultimate choice for containers, small patios, low hedges, or as a deer-resistant landscape accent in the Bay Area.

• A true dwarf pomegranate with a dense, bushy habit, rarely exceeding 3-4 feet in height and spread.

• Valued primarily for its non-stop floral show—brilliant orange-red, trumpet-shaped flowers bloom continuously from spring through fall.

• Produces small, ornamental, reddish-brown fruit that are attractive but very tart, best left for the birds or used as a tart garnish.

• Exceptionally adaptable to container life, making it perfect for balconies, entryways, and patio gardens.

• Highly drought-tolerant, deer-resistant, and low-maintenance once established, thriving in full sun.

• Can be pruned and trained as a bonsai, making it a popular choice for this art form.

Flavor Profile:

• Flavor: Very tart and acidic (primary use is ornamental).

• Texture: Small arils with hard seeds.

• Best Uses: Outstanding ornamental shrub, container specimen, bonsai, low hedge, or landscape accent plant. Not a primary fruit-producing variety.
