Pomegranate Success! in Mid-Atlantic. I live in Chesapeake VA, which is very near the coast. We have HOT humid summers, but I have had success with my pomegranates

It depends on the climate ‘which can vary in the same spot every year’, how much sun the fruit gets hit by, what part of the fruiting season, sunburn, and how ripe/over ripe it is, those things effect what the skin color/appearance is like. For us there is little if any green, it varies a lot.

I may not live in the Md-Atlantic, yet here are photos of some ‘Salavatski’ fruit that were picked from our ‘Salavatski’ bush last year, the darker ones where the ones in the cooler part of the fruiting season
