The Nishimura Wase Persimmon tree has medium to large sized round fruit with brilliant orange red skin. The fruit has flesh that is juicy, spicy-sweet and chocolate colored. This persimmon has fruit that is non astringent (like Fuyu) when properly pollinated and seeds develop. Fruit ripens in September. Chill hours needed only 100 to 200, so will fruit reliably in mild winter areas, yet can take winter temps in USDA zone 7 and all higher zones. Enjoy the fruit for fresh eating, cooking, drying, and freezing. Shipped potted in soil to ensure a healthier start when planted in orchard or garden. Trees are shipped about 4 feet tall.
