Poms grow so easily from seed that I don%26#039;t know why anyone would bother with cuttings. However...
Poms grow readily from either seed or cuttings. Make your cuttings with a node at each end. Strip off the leaves. Put the lower end in plain water, change the water daily, wait. You should see the first roots in about a week.
Plant seeds as you would Citrus. Get them as fresh as possible direct from the fruit, and don%26#039;t let them dry out in the meanwhile. Plant them in any light potting soil. Keep warm and moist. Wait. Pom seeds should germinate in about 5 - 7 days if conditions are good.
Can I propogate Pomegranates from stem or their seeds or are they too complicated to even try?
Propagation: The pomegranate can be raised from seed but may not come true. Cuttings root easily and plants from them bear fruit after about 3 years.
Twelve to 20 inches long cuttings should be taken in winter from mature, one-year old wood. The leaves should be removed and the cuttings treated with rooting hormone and inserted about two-thirds their length into the soil or into some other warm rooting medium.
Plants can also be air-layered but grafting is seldom successful.
Reply:They will grow from cuttings if done properly. i have 2 that i started that way. never had a seed to sprout.
