Notes

'Nana' pomegranate (Punica granatum 'Nana') is a fruit for borders, containers, food gardens, and hedges. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist soil of most types. Orange-red flowers open in spring, summer, and autumn, and they attract hummingbirds, bees, and birds. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal. The shrub grows 24 to 48 inches tall and wide.

Pairs well with Hidcote lavender, Sage, and Society garlic.
