Angel Red is an early-ripening pomegranate developed and patented in California, valued for its abundant, extremely juicy arils and productive habit. It ripens earlier than Wonderful, typically in the early-to-mid season, which extends the harvest window and suits areas with shorter seasons. The fruit has bright red skin and vivid red arils with soft seeds, and it yields a high volume of deep red juice, making it a strong choice for juicing. Trees are productive and set fruit heavily. Its early ripening and heavy juice content have made Angel Red popular with both home growers and juice-focused planters.
