Punica granatum 'Wonderful' Pomegranate Tree

Size: 150L
Sale price$1,080.00

Punica granatum 'Wonderful', or the Wonderful Pomegranate Tree, is a stunning deciduous tree valued for its rich ornamental appeal and delicious fruit. Growing 3–5 meters tall and spreading 2–4 meters wide, it forms an upright, well-branched canopy that adds lush greenery and vibrant seasonal color to gardens and orchards.

In late spring to early summer, the tree produces eye-catching orange-red blossoms with crinkled petals, creating a bright focal point in any landscape. Its glossy simple leaves provide a rich backdrop for both flowers and the prized pomegranates, which are large, ruby-red, and bursting with sweet-tart juice packed with antioxidants.

Thriving in full sun, Wonderful Pomegranate performs best with consistent moisture during growth but is drought-tolerant once established. Moderate pruning helps maintain its shape and encourages fruiting, while removing dead or diseased wood supports tree health.

This tree looks excellent when planted as a fruiting feature in orchard-style gardens, mixed borders, or patios. For best visual and production impact, pair it with low-growing, sun-loving groundcovers or herbs, enhancing the layered garden effect while benefiting from the pomegranate’s shade and structure.
