Punica granatum: Characteristics and Care
The Punica granatum, popularly known as the pomegranate tree, is a deciduous tree or large shrub native to Western Asia that stands out for its narrow, glossy foliage, its intense orange-red tubular flowers, and its characteristic fruit, the pomegranate.
Its striking summer flowering and its both ornamental and productive value make it a highly appreciated choice for both orchards and Mediterranean gardens.
Once established, it tolerates drought, heat, and poor, calcareous soils very well, provided it has good drainage.
At Ornacom, we directly cultivate each specimen, ensuring a balanced habit and abundant fruiting from the first years of planting.
