I was walking by our large specimen of Punica 'Nochi Shibari' one summer when I noticed a huge branch that was sporting solid double orange flowers instead of the typical white and orange. We subsequently propagated from the sport and were pleased to introduce it in 2013 as Carrot Top pomegranate. Punica 'Carrot Top' makes a 15' tall specimen, with glossy finger-sized leaves, adorned all summer with 3" wide, double orange flowers that resemble orange carnations...very cool.
