American Persimmon

American Persimmon

A Favorite for Preserves

  (0 customer reviews)



Doesn’t deserve its puckery reputation! Fruit starts out with a tangy apricot-like flavor, but develops a rich sweetness after first frost. 35- to 60-ft. tree is lovely enough to be used as an ornamental, with golden fall foliage and attractive deep orange fruit that will hang, till mid-winter, lending color to the winter landscape. Plant two for pollination. Potted. Zones 5-9.

This item will ship in fall 2012.
If our fall shipping season is closed, your order will be shipped the following fall.
