First ripe Desertnyi 2021

Delicious!! Much lighter skin than the later poms but the same inside. Large and juicy
As good as I remember them, I love this time of the year.

Beautiful pomegranate! I love the contrast between the light hull and dark arils. I successfully rooted one of these late in the season last year. It didn't survive the winter because it was really small when I had to winterize. Next year I'll be adding this to my collection.

Soft-seeded like Parfianka minus the wine taste?

Wow, this year is exceptional!
The kernels are huge and juicy

Even more stunning! I cannot wait to add this one to the collection. I had one in 2020 but it was too small and didn't survive the winter
