A softer, sweeter pomegranate bred for the South — pink-blushed fruit with juicy, low-acid arils you can eat by the handful.
The Texas Pink (Punica granatum 'Texas Pink') is a heat-loving, drought-tough pomegranate prized for its mild, sweet-tart flavor and beautiful pale-to-rosy rind. Selected to thrive in long, hot Southern summers, it earns its keep twice over: brilliant orange-red blossoms light up the plant in spring, then ripen into glossy fruit by early fall. The arils are tender and refreshing — excellent fresh, juiced, or scattered over salads and yogurt.
Why growers choose the Texas Pink
Sweet, easy-eating fruit. Lower acidity than many classic varieties means juicy, approachable arils that please kids and adults alike.
Built for heat and dry spells. Once established, it shrugs off summer heat and drought, making it one of the most forgiving fruiting plants you can grow.
Self-fertile. A single plant sets fruit on its own — no second variety required to get a crop.
Ornamental all season. Glossy foliage, ruffled coral-red flowers in spring, and decorative blushed fruit give it real landscape value.
Patio-friendly. It takes well to a large container, so cold-climate gardeners can grow it outdoors in summer and shelter it through winter.
Whether you want a fruiting focal point in a sunny border, an informal flowering hedge, or a single specimen in a big pot on the patio, the Texas Pink rewards a warm, sunny spot with years of color and fruit.
