Gurney's Seed and Nursery 1 Count Fruit Tree Izu Persimmon Starter Bareroot

Many persimmons are astringent right up until they're completely ripe, but not Izu, because it can be eaten when it's firm and crisp. You also won't have to wait so long on this one, as it's the earliest ripening of the non-astringent persimmon cultivars. You can also leave the fruit on the tree as ornaments, as it hangs on into winter with brilliant orange color. This is a great fruit tree for the Southern garden. It only requires 100 hours below 45°F to produce high yields of delightful fruit. Hardy in USDA zones 7 to 10. Reaches a mature height of 10 feet.
