Description
This stamp illustrates the pomegranate (Punica granatum), a fruit steeped in history and symbolism, introduced to Tunisia since Phoenician times and particularly associated with the Testour region. By presenting bright fruits on their branch and a section revealing the ruby ​​grains, the visual evokes fertility, abundance and prosperity. The program promotes this precious arboreal heritage, recalling that pomegranate cultivation is a link between Andalusian heritage and oasis traditions, constituting a pillar of the country's biodiversity and taste identity.
