Pomegranate 'Vietnamese Pink' (Punica granatum)
The Vietnamese Pink Pomegranate is an evergreen, ever bearing, fast-growing, and extremely heavy producing pomegranate variety that's perfect to grow in warmer climates.
This amazing pomegranate variety from Vietnam produces large round fruit that's full of soft juicy seeds. The deep red seeds have a mild but bright and distinctly pomegranate flavor that's perfect for juicing or eating fresh off the tree. The Vietnamese Pomegranate tree has a very shrubby habitat and could easily be grown in containers.
Pomegranate fruit is loaded with beneficial nutrients and antioxidants! Juice from the seed pulp contains compounds known as polyphenols (micronutrients from certain plant-based foods that are packed with antioxidants and potential health benefits.) Some studies have shown that pomegranate juice may lower cholesterol levels, blood pressure, and manage hypertension.
