American Persimmon - Bare Root Tree
(Diospyros virginiana)
6-12” Bare Root Tree
This native variety of Persimmon has much more flavor than the varieties you can find at the store, if of course you’re willing to wait for the tree to fruit. But if so, you will be heavily rewarded by a bountiful harvest that starts feeding you when all the other produce has passed in late fall. Persimmons can hold onto their fruit for longer periods when temperatures are colder, so don’t be afraid of winter with this incredibly hardy plant.
Hardiness: Zone 5-9 with potential for Zone 4 Hardiness
Soil: Acidic, Clay, Loamy, Moist, Sandy, Well Drained
Light: Full Sun/Partial Shade
Notes: This tree requires pollination from a mother and father plant so you need at least a few of these seedlings to ensure you get fruit!
