We can use vegetative propagation by cuttings (softwood and hardwood) and micropropagation, to grow pomegranate trees which produce fruit idential to the parental tree.

We can propagate pomegranates using both softwood or hardwoods cuttings, but we most commonly use hardwood cuttings commercially. We take softwood cuttings from wood late in the season and they require mist and greenhouse conditions for rooting to occur. In contrast, we take hardwood cuttings from one year old wood or suckers, then trim and place them directly onto the nursery floor, where they grow for one year prior to being transplanted with bare roots. Planting unrooted cuttings into the orchard floor establishes other pomegranate orchards, but we can also propagate under mist. Air layering parent plants and transplanting suckers are also effective methods of propagation.

Answer:

Vegetative propagation can be used by cuttings (softwood and hardwood) and micropropagation, which fruit identical is produced to the parental tree to grown new pomegranate trees.

Pomegranate can be propagated using both softwood or hardwood cuttings, but hardwood cuttings is most commonly used commercially by us. Softwood cuttings are taken by us from wood late in the season and mist and greenhouse conditions are required by them for rooting to occur. In contrast, hardwood cuttings are taken by us from one year old, wood or suckers then they are trimmed and placed directly onto the nursery floor. Where they grow for one year prior to being transplanted with bare roots. Planting unrooted   cuttings into the orchard floor establishes other pomegranate orchards, but we can also propagate under mist. Air layering parent plants and transplanting suckers are also effective methods of propagation.
