Pomegranate
Perhaps no other fruit in the world is so steeped in culture and history as the pomegranate. For 4000 years the Pomegranate has been depicted as a symbol of prosperity, hope, and abundance in every time period, and part of the world inspiring artists, authors, and world leaders. Scholars maintain that the forbidden fruit of the “tree of knowledge” eaten by Eve was in fact not an apple but a pomegranate. The name is thought to come from the French; pomme garnete, literally "seeded apple" or more likely the Latin pōmum "apple" and grānātum "seeded". It has figured in many ancient religious texts including the Bible and the Quran, and figures prominently in Greek Mythology. It is native to modern day Iran and is widely cultivated throughout the Middle East, Mediterranean, southern Europe, tropical Africa, Latin America, and in the United States much cultivation in California and Arizona. Its multi-seeded deep red arils (seeds) symbolize fertility and prosperity in several cultures.
