Pomegranate is a bushy plant that grows in a small space if it gets enough sun. Start with a healthy sapling from a nursery rather than seeds. Plant it in a large pot or drum with drainage holes, and prune regularly to control its size. In Bengaluru’s weather, a potted plant can start bearing fruit in about four months, according to one urban gardener. In cooler regions, expect a longer wait.
