‘Red Silk’ is best known for its dwarf growing habit, making it a great choice for small space gardens or yards. At maturity, it generally tops out at six to eight feet tall.

It’s ideal for growing in containers or smaller gardens, and despite its compact size, this variety can still be a heavy producer.

Large red blooms and medium to large red fruits with medium to hard deep pink arils can be expected from ‘Red Silk.’

Pomegranates are typically ready for harvest between August and September. Their flavor is reminiscent of red berries, with a balanced sweet-tart taste.
