Description

The Punica granatum, commonly known as the pomegranate, is a shrub or small tree that can reach up to 6 metres in height. It is native to the Mediterranean region, but is now cultivated worldwide for its fruits, which are edible and have medicinal properties. The leaves are simple, bright green, and measure between 3 and 7 centimetres long. They are alternate, lanceolate with smooth edges. It is a highly valued ornamental and fruiting plant worldwide. Since it is a deciduous fruit tree, when the foliage falls, generally in autumn-early spring, it will be served without leaves.

    * The indicated size is indicative. It is an approximate height calculated by averaging the height of several specimens. As living beings, each plant has its own shape and growth rate and, therefore, the measurement cannot be taken as exact.

    * Some plants that have flowers and/or fruits may not have them at the time of purchase. Since flowering, fruit production and even foliage production is seasonal, it may be the case that the time of purchase does not coincide with these periods of flowering or fruiting, which does not imply that the plant has a defect or deficiency.
