Persimmon Fuyu (Jiro)

Often called the "Apple Persimmon," the Fuyu Persimmon is a medium-sized fruit with a distinctive flat shape. Unlike many other persimmons, it remains delightfully crisp even when fully ripe and is non-astringent, making it perfect for fresh eating. This hardy and attractive tree thrives in both cool and hot climates, requires minimal care, and is practically pest-free. Its abundant fall harvest makes it a standout in the orchard, offering both beauty and a delicious reward. Self-Fruitful. Photo curtesy of Dave Wilson Nursery
