I just found this thread and love your little pomegranate, Kim. How did your fruit taste?

I picked up a dwarf pomegranate early this year (Punica granatum "Nana"). Mine is in a larger container and is 18 to 24 inches tall. Mine should be winter hardy in my zone.

It has bloomed and produced fruit all summer. I hadn't sampled it yet but was delighted that the hummingbirds and bees loved the blooms also.

I wonder if your plant would grow a bit larger in a bigger container even though the fruits are small.

Sharing a couple of photos ~ The first is the plant with blooms/fruits. The second is the size of the Nana fruit in comparison to a regular pomegranate.
