American Persimmon

from $10.00
Sold Out

Hardiness: zone 4-9, but likes a long growing season to ripen fully.

Diospyros, fruit of the gods. 30% sugar by weight. Reliable annual cropper once of bearing age. Long lived, resilient, such a gift for the future. Small packets of sugar dropping from the heavens.

These seedling genetics come from delicious and large fruited named cultivars in various orchards across the country. A delicious persimmon will beget delicious persimmons of similar size, but will have some variability in terms of ripening time. All of the persimmon trees I gather from drop their fruit when ripe, and they are no longer astringent. American persimmons are more or less pest and disease free, but protect them from deer!~

Persimmons are dioecious; around half of seed grown persimmons will be males, and the other half will be fruit producing females. You don’t need males for fruit, but the fruit tend to be larger and I think tastier when pollinated and they will also have seeds! Plant a few if you don’t plan on grafting so you’ll have at least one female tree.
