The Haku-Botan Pomegranate is a distinctive Japanese variety featuring striking double white blossoms and large, flavorful fruit with creamy white skin and low acidity. It thrives in the cooler summer conditions typical of the Pacific Northwest and British Columbia. This self-fertile plant requires ample sunlight and warmth to flower and bear fruit, with leaves emerging in late spring.
