Punica granatum

for SC128 - Post 5 January - Stillife with fruit
www.ipernity.com/group/daysincolour365

The pomegranate tree was cultivated in ancient times by the Phoenicians, Greeks and Egyptians. The importance of its fruit - the pomegranate - goes back thousands of years, appearing in biblical texts associated with passions and fertility, and was also considered by the Greeks to be a symbol of love and fertility.

This one is a miniature one I have in a pot, usually fruits are edible between September and December.

Wunderbar, ich habe sie erst kürzlich in Granada genossen. In dieser Stadt gibt es mehr Granatäpfel, auch als Skulptur in Stein oder Marmor, als man es sich vorstellen kann. ***
