The pomegranate is one of the fruit plants cultivated the longest in the Mediterranean area; it has Asian origins, but already several centuries ago cultivation was spread in warmer and drier areas of the Mediterranean, where it develops better. It\u2019s a big shrub that produces numerous basic pollens, generally in cultivation the central stem is chosen and the pollens are exported, to allow the development of a small tree, with a deciduous leaf; it has a rugged and wrinkly bark, of a light colour, the leaves are small and lanceolate, light green, they become orange before falling, in autumn.<\/p>\n

TERRAIN<\/h6>\n

The pomegranate is a plant that lives outside in half shade all year, in stands cold temperatures and it tolerates strong salty winds. It needs a well drained soil, without water stagnation.<\/p>\n

FLORA AND FRUIT<\/h6>\n

In spring it produces small red flowers, enclosed in chunky buds, slightly tough, and also red. After the flowers big berries follow, known as arils, yellow orange and red, or even a mix of the three colours; the berries have a tough and thick skin, very fibrous, where inside there are countless small seeds, enclosed in small yellow membranes, rich in tannin. The seeds are consumed raw, or a juice is obtained, and they have various flavours depending on the variety of the plant, from very sour seeds to slightly sweet and very sweet, that are better consumed fresh.<\/p>\n
