Step 1
Plant your dwarf pomegranate seeds when the soil is warm. The soil temperature should be 68 to 86 degrees Fahrenheit. If you are planting the seeds in a container, use a heating pad under the pot to give the seeds the warmth they need from the soil. The area you choose should be one that receives full sunlight. If you are planting in a container, place the pot near a window that will get sun throughout the day.

Step 2
Lay the seeds on top of the soil and press them into the soil so that the soil barely covers them.
-
Step 3
Water your dwarf pomegranate seeds gently by sprinkling water over them. This will keep you from driving your seeds too deeply into the soil with the force of the water.
-
Step 4
Fertilize your dwarf pomegranate plants once in the spring and once in summer, to keep them thriving during these peak growing seasons.
-
Step 5
Water the young dwarf pomegranates regularly, letting the soil become dry in between the waterings. Once the plant begins to grow flowers and fruit, after one to two years, water it more regularly, keeping the soil moist.

Step 6
Bring your dwarf pomegranate plants indoors over the winter if you live in a cold climate. If your plants are in containers, simply place them indoors near a window. If they are grown in the ground, dig up the plant, keeping the roots as intact as possible, and transplant them into a pot large enough to house the roots without crushing them. Replant them outdoors once the temperature reaches the high 60s again.
