Persimmon
Diospyros Kaki 'Fuyu'
Overview
The 'Fuyu' Persimmon (Diospyros kaki) is a non-astringent variety prized for its sweet, crisp fruit. This deciduous tree grows 20-30 feet tall and wide, with glossy green leaves turning vivid orange-red in fall. It requires full sun and well-drained soil, and is hardy in USDA zones 7-10. Its small, creamy white flowers precede the heavy crop of large, orange, tomato-like persimmons, typically ripening in late fall.
