Pomegranate with green leaves
The pomegranate (Punica granatum) is a fruit-bearing deciduous shrub or small tree growing to 5ââ¬â8 m tall. In the functional food industry, pomegranate is included in a novel category of exotic fruits called superfruits. The seeds and surrounding pulp, ranging in colour from white to deep red, called arils, are edible; indeed, the fruit of the pomegranate is a berry. After opening the pomegranate by scoring it with a knife and breaking it open, the arils (seed casings) are separated from the peel and internal white pulp membranes.
