Description
Diospyros kaki ‘Jiro’ is a popular persimmon bearing abundant crops of sweet, flavourful, orange fruit followed by strikingly beautiful, orange-yellow fall foliage. Non-astringent. The fruit can be eaten when firm like an apple or when soft and tender like a ripe tomato or dried. Persimmons are one of the most popular fruits in Asia and treasured for fresh eating or desserts. Self-fertile. For the 2025 Citrus Pre-Order these trees are in 5 gallon pots and 5-6 feet high. They cannot be shipped via Canada Post or FedEx. Available only for pick-up or for courier or freight shipping. Photo: Wikimedia.
