Your Maru persimmon tree will treat you to fruit that is medium sized and round, with brilliant orange red skin. When you eat your persimmons, enjoy fruit that is dark cinnamon colored, juicy, sweet and excellent quality. The Maru persimmons are non astringent if seeded, allowing you to eat crisp like an apple right off of the tree. The persimmons ripen in October, about the same time the foliage turns brilliant shades of red and scarlet. The Maru persimmon needs only 100 to 200 hours of chilling, so a good choice for those in mild to moderate winter areas. Enjoy the fruit for fresh eating, cooking, drying and freezing. The trees are shipped potted in soil to ensure a healthier start when planted in yard or garden. About 4 feet tall when shipped.
