Pomegranate - Sweet, Punica granatum 'Sweet', is a large pomegranate with light pink flesh. The fruit is sweet and juicy. The tree grows to 12 feet and has orange-red flowers in late spring, producing beautiful pink fruits in the fall. The Sweet pomegranate ripens early September. The pomegranate is a round shaped shrub or small tree and is self-fruitful, long-lived, and very productive. The rich, tart, unique flavor is fueling the high demand as a healthy ingredient to many of the new juice mixes found in stores. 'Sweet' pomegranates make smaller trees than other varieties, so this one does well in pots. Pomegranates should be placed in the sunniest, warmest part of the yard or orchard for the best fruit. It does best in well-drained ordinary soil, but also thrives on calcareous or acidic loam as well as rock strewn gravel.
