I think we have the same situation that I ran across with the elm. My understanding is that there is a specific cultivar of Punica granatum called 'Nejikan' which is a standard, not dwarf, and naturally grows with a twisted trunk. I just bought a dwarf Pomegranate, no twisted trunk I can see, but the seller swore she has been growing these for years, they come from Korea, & the Koreans always call them Nejikan. Can anyone enlighten me? Iris: Nejikan is a style of bonsai. The dwarf Punica, the Nana, will not naturally develop into a twisted trunk. However, it is always possible that you did not purchase a dwarf. );-) The Punica in my personal collection is a dwarf. One the wonderful traits of working with the dwarf of the species is its ability to develop fine ramifications through the application of bonsai technique. Enjoy the tree! I have enjoyed mine for the past 16 years.
