Good Morning,
Thank you for contacting the U of M Extension Service.
We are volunteers who answer yard and garden horticulture questions for Minnesota.
I did some research on growing pomegranate. They will not survive the cold winters in Minnesota. They are usually grown in more temperate climates where it does not freeze in the winter.
