Conducted studies of the growth and development of wild-growing pomegranate in various botanical and geographical regions of Azerbaijan established the timing of the passage of the main phenological phases of the plant and determined their features depending on environmental factors. Comparative data on the phases of development of wild-growing pomegranate in different regions of the Republic of Azerbaijan showed that the onset of phenophases in wild-growing pomegranate in different regions does not occur simultaneously. The phases of development in Siyazan, Goychay, Yevlakh, and Agdash regions begin at an earlier calendar date compared to Khizi, Sheki, Agsu, and Ismayilli regions. According to the results obtained, the growing season of the pomegranate lasts from 190 to 230 days.
