1 Similar to human hair, the bark of a pomegranate tree turns gray with age. 2  Punica granatum was present during biblical times. 3  It is thought that pomegranate may have been the âforbidden fruitâ in the Garden of Eden. 4  Pomegranates symbolize fertility, success, and wealth. Punica granatum is nicknamed the Jewel of Winter because it is in season from September to January in the Northern Hemisphere. 2  In the United States, pomegranates are used more for decoration than they are for food. 3  Color does not indicate the ripeness of pomegranate fruit.
