Dwarf Pomegranate

Can make a good bonsai tree because it has small leaves, flowers and fruits as well as it's twisting style of trunk which it produces as it grows.

Native to the Mediterranean and Asia it is simply amazing.

In Ancient Egypt the Dwarf Pomegranate was considered a sacred plant that should be worshipped.
