Description
- Looking for a new star for your patio? Look no further! 'Nana' is a delightful little pomegranate bush which we've trained into a classic, lollipop-shaped standard that's perfect for container growing.
- Boasting glossy foliage, stunning crimson flowers and utterly delicious, rounded, red-brown fruits, this plant is small but most definitely mighty.
- The foliage is worth talking about in more detail, given the various hues it takes on throughout the year; often starting out with coppery tints, the leaves go on to become shiny green, before finally adopting more golden hues as autumn rolls around.
- Easy to care for and low-maintenance, this bushy plant is an ideal pick for gardeners looking to introduce something more unusual, without having to learn a rigorous care routine.
- A recipient of the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit, this variety certainly has its legions of devoted fans - including us!

How to grow
How to grow
Excellent pest and disease resistance
Rarely troubled by pests or diseases.
Water during dry spells
While pomegranates are fairly drought tolerant once established, they'll benefit from watering throughout their first growing season, post-planting, and in hot, dry spells thereafter.
Full sun
Plant somewhere that your pomegranate tree will receive at least six hours of direct sunlight per day.
Any well-drained soil
Plant in soil with good drainage and preferably good levels of fertility.
Feed every spring
Apply a layer of well-rotted manure every spring to replenish your tree's nutrients. For pot-grown pomegranates, remove the top layer of compost and replace with new loamy compost (like John Innes No 3).

Best plants you will ever get online
I have ordered plants from them twice this year. They arrived well packaged, on time and looked strong and healthy. I feel the staff from Roots plants deal with their plants and customers with passion and care. I can’t wait to order again, price is good as well.
Highly recommended all round
Delivered quickly, perfectly packaged and the tree was in excellent condition. Really healthy and taken to the garden with no problems. Can't recommend highly enough. 5 stars isn't enough!
Satisfied customer
Unlike other online sellers, this company are well ahead in the quality stakes. My plant arrived promptly as per their promise and the plant was much more established and healthy than I had expected. It’s the second time I have ordered from them and I have faith in their promise. Excellent service.
A really good quality tree
A really good quality tree, delivered on time and very well packaged. But the emailed planting advice and supporting information was what really impressed me. Thoroughly recommended.
Exceptional quality
The quality of the plants was exceptional, unlike ones I have had before from local garden centres. Thank you so much. I will definitely be using you again.
Marvellous!
Marvellous service, great plants and fast delivery. Very useful information on how to care for the plants I bought. Easy to use website that makes it far too easy to overindulge in fabulous plants 😂🌱
