Pomegranate Tree

Punica granatum, the pomegranate, is a deciduous shrub or small tree known for its long-lived nature and architectural beauty. It features glossy, narrow leaves and showy, funnel-shaped orange-red flowers that bloom in summer. The iconic round fruit has a leathery skin and contains hundreds of juicy, edible seeds. It thrives in hot, dry climates with well-drained soil and full sun exposure. This versatile plant works well as a specimen, hedge, or container plant in Mediterranean-style gardens.
