Angel Red Pomegranate

✓ Verified
United States

Angel Red is a real, patent-protected pomegranate variety — unauthorized asexual propagation of it is legally restricted under that patent. It is genuinely notable for unusually soft seeds, soft enough to eat comfortably along with the juicy arils, and a milder, less acidic flavor than traditional tart pomegranate varieties, which has made it a popular choice specifically for commercial pomegranate juice production. The tree is real and documented as notably compact, typically reaching only about 10 feet tall and wide, considerably smaller than many other pomegranate varieties. I was not able to find a specific named breeder or exact release date for this variety beyond its patented, protected status. If you have a fuller source for its background, it can be corrected with real information.
