Acquire an elite collection of 100+ fresh, high-viability seeds of the world-renowned 'Hicaz' Pomegranate (Punica granatum). Originating from the Mediterranean regions of Turkey, the Hicaz is universally regarded by pomologists as the gold standard for commercial-quality pomegranates. Distinguished by its deep, dark-red skin and large, robust arils, this cultivar offers an exceptional balance of high sugar content and a sophisticated, bright acidity that provides the quintessential pomegranate flavor profile.

These are not generic, mass-produced seeds; they are meticulously harvested from top-tier 'Hicaz' mother trees, selected specifically for their consistent fruit size, high juice yield, and structural vigor. The seeds are processed with rigorous hygiene standards and vacuum-sealed to preserve the embryonic integrity required for professional-grade germination. For the discerning collector or the serious orchardist aiming to produce a market-leading fruit, these seeds are the superior foundation.

Our botanical assets are vetted for genetic authenticity. Each purchase includes our specialized propagation protocols, engineered to navigate the dormancy requirements and moisture sensitivity typical of high-quality Punica cultivars.

🌳 Propagation & Cultivation Information

• Botanical Name: Punica granatum 'Hicaz'

• Common Name: Hicaz Pomegranate

• Plant Type: Deciduous, long-lived fruiting tree

• Germination Strategy: Seeds require a warm, stable environment. Pre-soak in room-temperature, dechlorinated water for 24–48 hours to hydrate the embryo. Plant in a sterilized, highly porous substrate to encourage rapid root elongation.

• Growth Requirements: Favors full, intense sun exposure and thrives in climates with hot, dry summers. It exhibits remarkable drought tolerance once established but demands consistent moisture during the fruit-set phase.

• Soil / Medium: Highly adaptable but prefers deep, calcareous, well-draining soils. Avoid heavy clay or waterlogged conditions, which will trigger root-zone necrosis.

• Temperature: Ideal germination range: 24°C–29°C. Maintain consistent soil heat; sudden temperature drops during the initial emergence phase can result in seedling stagnation.

💡 Pro Growing Tip: Punica granatum 'Hicaz' is a prolific bloomer, but young seedlings often experience "transplant shock" when moved from seed trays to larger containers. To mitigate this, use peat-free, air-pruning propagation cells. This encourages the development of a dense, fibrous root system rather than a single, circling taproot. As the seedling matures, introduce periodic light pruning of the lateral branches; this forces the plant to invest energy into vertical structural development, ensuring a stronger, more capable trunk that will eventually support the heavy, dense fruit loads for which the 'Hicaz' is so famous!
