Very large fruit has red skin with some green on the background. Arils are a translucent red/white color. Sweet with just a hint of tartness and an excellent tantalizing flavor. Well suited for dry climates like ours, and performing well so far on our farm.It is said to do well in drier climates, as with most pomegranates, and particularly does not do well in areas with humid summers.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Pomegranate is fairly easy to take care of. If desired, pomegranates can be pruned to a tree shape. Add compost at initial planting, and dress with 1/2 inch of compost annually. Pomegranates will survive drought, but will flourish with regular deep watering.
