Sharing pictures of Pomegranet tree at Pune

The second picture shows the flower

In the third picture the pomegranate shows black specks which are marks of pecking by Parrots. They love Pomegranate

Punica granatum of Lythraceae family just to correct the spelling.
By the way this is one of the many examples of accepted error in the
name, or a very complicated nomenclature. The genus of species and
generic name doesnt match but it is accepted.

Welcome gibs.
The genus of species and generic name doesnt match in gender I meant.

The black spots are marks of pecking of the fruit-fly that lays eggs
inside the fruit. This infestation is common on guava and p'granate.
