The dwarf pomegranate (Punica granatum 'Nana') is a small deciduous shrub native to the Mediterranean region and Asia. It typically grows 2-4 feet tall, making it ideal for container gardening and small landscapes. The shrub features glossy, dark green leaves and produces vibrant orange-red flowers from spring to summer, followed by small, edible pomegranate fruits in the fall. It thrives in well-drained soils and full sun. Dwarf pomegranate is valued for its ornamental beauty, compact size, and fruit production, and is often used in gardens, as a border plant, or in bonsai.
