Dwarf Pomegranate Punica 'Nana'

Planting advice for your Pomegranate:

• For pomegranate trees grown in containers, you will need around a 45L (10 gallon) container.
• Set the root ball into the pot and fill in around the roots with the soil to the top of the container but not covering the trunk.
• Water the new tree in well and lightly tap the soil down to eliminate any air pockets and to settle it around the roots.

Pomegranate Aftercare advice:

• Pomegranates are self-pollinating, so you only need one to set fruit and will bear fruit from their second year onwards if kept happy. They need full sun to reach their best so keep outside where possible and if inside place near a bright, sunny window.
• If growing your pomegranate outside, keep an eye on the weather report and if the temperature drops below 40 degrees F. (4 C.), move the plant indoors to a sunny position.
• Water the tree deeply about once a week, more often during peak summer months, especially container-grown plants.
• During the first two years of the tree’s growth, feed with a general-purpose fertiliser in November, February, and May, and thereafter in November and February.

Pruning Advice for Pomegranates:

• Prune out any crossing branches or shoots to three to five per branch after the tree’s first year.
• Prune out any dead or damaged limbs in the late winter.
• Prune out suckers to create a more tree-like appearance.
  

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
