Pomagranate anatomy. When the bloom first opens, the ovary is just a small bump on the back of the bloom. Once the bloom is pollinated, it drops off and the ovary swells, making the points of the bract that were behind the bloom move closer together until it looks like the "Jughead hat" shaped protrusions you see in the photo. Most of these fruits are not ripe yet.

My ornamental pomegranite tree has double carnation-like blooms measuring 4 inches in diameter. This one is not fully opened yet. It was supposed to be a dwarf and nonbearing, but it was mislabelled and is a medium sized tree and bears some fruit. Shown in April. (San Antonio, Texas)
