There is nothing on this earth more delectable than a succulent pomegranate. The glistening pomegranate seeds sparkled like edible rubies. If you like this plant scientifically known as Punica granatum , try growing one yourself. Although this plant is more of a shrub than a tree, you can still shape your pomegranate tree into a tree look.
Steps
Planting pomegranate trees
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/4c/Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-1-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-a- Pomegranate-Tree-Step-1-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/4c/Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-1- Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-1-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose the right pomegranate. Punica granatum is a small tree that produces very tasty fruit. The pomegranate tree will grow to a height of about 2.5 m, with orange flowers that bloom throughout the summer. The dwarf variety “Nana” is shorter, growing to only about 1 meter tall and is the most suitable pomegranate variety for growing in pots. Chances are you also like the frill-like flowers of the pomegranate variety “Beautiful”.
- Consider climate factors when choosing pomegranate varieties to plant. Most pomegranate varieties do not tolerate temperatures below -9.5 degrees Celsius . [1] X Research Source
- There are many ways to grow pomegranates: growing from seedlings, from cuttings or from seeds. Growing a pomegranate tree from seed does not guarantee that you will get the right type of pomegranate, and you must wait three to four years before the tree bears fruit. If you want to know how to make pomegranate seeds sprout, you can read the wikiHow articles.

Look for cuttings or seedlings. You can buy pomegranate seedlings at nurseries. Make sure to buy pomegranate varieties that produce edible fruit if you want to enjoy home-grown pomegranates. However, if you know someone who has grown pomegranate trees, you can also take a branch from the tree. Cut a branch at least 25 cm long. Cover the cutting head with a rooting stimulant to help the cuttings grow. [2] X Research Source
- Cut the cuttings in February or March, when the plant is still dormant.

Choose a location with lots of sunlight. Pomegranate fishing loves the sun and will only bear good fruit if there is enough sun. If there is no part of your yard that receives sunlight throughout the day, choose a spot with the least amount of shade. [3] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/e/ef/Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-4-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-a- Pomegranate-Tree-Step-4-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/e/ef/Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-4- Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-4-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose well-draining soil. Pomegranate does not tolerate waterlogged soil. This plant grows best on well-drained soil, even sandy soil. Some pomegranate growers consider the best soil for pomegranates to be mildly acidic, although pomegranates also do well in relatively alkaline soils. In general, pomegranates will adapt well to the soil, as long as the soil is well drained. [4] X Research Sources

Protect plants from wind and high humidity. Plant pomegranate trees in a warm, dry place and at least protected from strong winds. Avoid growing pomegranates in moist, dark, or steamy areas. Remember that pomegranate trees prefer hot, dry climates. [5] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/e/e0/Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-6-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-a- Pomegranate-Tree-Step-6-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/e/e0/Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-6- Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-6-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Plant pomegranate trees. Plant pomegranate trees in early spring, after the last frost. Gently lift the seedling out of the potting soil. Wash about 2.5 cm below the roots to remove soil. This is to help the plant take root more quickly than to let the whole pot sit down. Dig a hole 60 cm wide, about 60 cm deep and place the pomegranate tree in the hole. [6] X Research Sources
- If growing plants from cuttings, you need to loosen the soil and insert the branches into the ground about 12-15 cm deep, the tips of the buds facing the sky. [7] X Research Sources
- Also, remember to put a layer of rooting powder around the plant to help the roots grow.
Pomegranate tree care
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/d6/Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-7-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-a- Pomegranate-Tree-Step-7-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/d6/Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-7- Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-7-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Water the plant immediately after planting. This will help compact the soil around the newly planted pomegranate tree. Then water every day until the plant begins to produce its first leaves. The appearance of leaves signals that the plant has begun to take root and adjust to its new “home”. Gradually switch to once every 7-10 days. [8] X Research Sources
- When the plants flower or bear fruit, water them once a week. However, you don’t need to water as much if it rains. [9] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/81/Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-8-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-a- Pomegranate-Tree-Step-8-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/81/Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-8- Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-8-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Fertilize when the plant has taken root. Pomegranate plants are suitable for ammonium sulfate fertilizers. In the first year, fertilize 3 times, about 1/3 cup each time (February, May and September are ideal times to fertilize). [10] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/0/09/Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-9-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-a- Pomegranate-Tree-Step-9-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/0/09/Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-9- Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-9-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Pull the weeds around the pomegranate tree. You should not let weeds and other plants compete with pomegranates; You may also find it difficult to weed around the tree when the pomegranate tree is low and growing like a shrub. Weed or cover the ground with organic mulch around the plants. The mulch will resist weeds and weeds, and keep the plants moist.
Pruning and maintaining pomegranate trees
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/78/Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-10-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-a- Pomegranate-Tree-Step-10-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/78/Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-10- Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-10-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Bend and prune the pomegranate tree into a woody form if desired. Although pomegranate trees will grow more like shrubs than trees if not pruned, you can still prune to give your pomegranate tree a more woody appearance. This is what many gardeners do.
- Use pruning shears or pruning shears to cut away side shoots (the smallest branches that give the tree a bushy appearance) that grow near the base of the tree to give it a more woody appearance. This should be done as soon as the plant has taken root. [11] X Research Source
- If you don’t need your pomegranate tree to have a woody shape, let it grow naturally.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/72/Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-11-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-a- Pomegranate-Tree-Step-11-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/72/Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-11- Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-a-Pomegranate-Tree-Step-11-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Remove dead or damaged branches. You don’t need to prune your pomegranate tree regularly to maintain it, but it’s also a good idea to prune dead or damaged branches in the spring to help the tree thrive. You can also prune the tree to make it less bushy, if necessary. [12] X Research Source
- If you grow a pomegranate tree in a pot, you will have to prune and prune more to keep it the size and shape you want.

Keeping pomegranate trees healthy. Do not overwater to avoid mold growth. Two other problems that pomegranate trees often have are aphids and butterflies. You can kill aphids with sprays purchased at nurseries or gardening stores. You can also do a combination of pest control measures to get rid of aphids, including attracting ladybugs, spraying plants with water to dislodge aphids, you can even buy predatory insects to kill them. kill aphids. [13] X Sources of research Pomegranate butterflies are not very common and probably not a problem. If so, use a spray to kill the larvae as well. [14] X Research Source
