Differing from other varieties of pomegranates, the Utah Sweet has pinkish-orange flowers and sweet, good quality, pink fruit that is suitable for juice or fresh eating. This plant can be considered a large evergreen shrub or small tree. It flowers through the summer with brilliantly colored blooms. The skin of the fruit is hard and leathery, holding pink pulp and seeds that are softer than the norm. This shrub can be massed to form a hedge or border, or planted in a container as an interesting pool or patio accent.
