Tanenashi Asian Persimmon

Prolific producer. The name translates to “seedless”. Astringent when first picked, the cone-shaped variety boasts attractive yellow to red-orange skin and nearly seedless, yellow-orange flesh. Once fully ripened on or off the tree, the pucker factor is subdued and the soft pulp-like flesh has a sweet, rich flavor – a culinary delight! The top variety for drying in its country of origin, Japan. Heat-tolerant. Ripens in September or October. Grafted. Self-pollinating.
Note: Our persimmon trees are grown in EZ Start® pots, which allow the roots to self-air prune and redirect energy to producing a dense mass of feeder roots. The main tap root will begin forming once planted in its permanent location, and will fully develop over the next 2-3 years.
