Punica granatum – Wonderful Pomegranate
Also known as: Red Grenade, Seed Apple, Anar
This heavy-bearing, cold-tolerant pomegranate variety is famous for its rich red skin, sweet-tart arils, and consistent cropping. Originally from California, Wonderful became the benchmark commercial pomegranate due to its bold flavour and long shelf life. It thrives in WA’s dry summers and alkaline soils.
A striking feature plant and productive food source, this one grows well in-ground or pot. Easily pruned into a compact size, or left to grow into a bold 4m multi-stemmed shrub.
