Pomegranate variety Hicaz, Punica granatum Hicaz
The Hicaz variety is probably the most popular pomegranate variety on the market at the moment. If back in the days the Wonderful variety was the benchmark against which all other pomegranate varieties were compared, now Hicaz is the best variety.
The fruits of this elite Turkish variety have a perfect sweet and sour taste, with about 85% falling on the sweet taste and about 15% - on the sour. With this perfect combination of the two flavors, it is not surprising that the Hicaz variety is a favorite of almost everyone who has tried it.
Plants of the Hicaz variety can tolerate winter minimum temperatures down to about -12° C without damage. Although drought-resistant, the plants must be watered regularly in summer, otherwise the fruits remain sour and will crack after the first rain!
