Pomegranate extract (Punica granatum), is known as anaar in India and granado in Spain. It grows wild in India, Italy, North Africa and China. The pomegranate also serves as a symbol in many cultures. It is a common motif in Christianity, the fruit of choice on the Jewish holiday, Rosh Hashanah, and a recurring token in Greek and Roman mythology. It continues to serve a symbolic purpose in Greek culture, showing up in weddings, funerals, new home purchases, and the new year, serving as a symbol for abundance, fertility, and good luck.
Some use pomegranate extract as both a tannin-rich mordant and as a dye. Pomegranate is an aromatic dye that yields a matte green-yellow color. 50g of pomegranate extract will dye approximately 600g (1.4 pounds) of fiber to a dark yellow shade.
It yields rich blue greens when overdyed with indigo or dark olive greens when combined with logwood or iron.
