Pomegranate ‘WONDERFUL’ A multi-stemmed small shrub growing to about 3 x 3 metres. Produces double red flowers throughout spring and summer.
The fruit is medium in size, round with a red leathery appearance. The flesh is red with a jelly-like coating that covers many seeds and has a rich flavour that is used for fresh fruit or juice. The fruit is produced on branch terminals and as the fruit matures the increasing size weighs the branch down in a pendulous fashion.
Hot dry summers are required for good fruiting, although it sets most fruit after a cold winter. They prefer well-drained ordinary soil, mulch well yearly.
