Growing Information

Japanese Persimmon trees thrive in full sun and well-draining soil, ideally enriched with peat moss. They are deciduous and grow at a moderate pace, reaching heights between 33 and 46 feet. These trees are self-fertile, making them suitable for backyard orchards without the need for additional pollinators. The fruit matures in the fall to early winter, providing a seasonal harvest. Persimmon trees tolerate a wide temperature range, from 5°F to 109°F, and require moderate watering to maintain healthy growth. Propagation can be successfully achieved through grafting or rooting the provided cuttings, following the included instructions.
