Fuyu Persimmon Tree

The Fuyu is high in Vitamin A and C, potassium, fiber, and amino acids. The fruits can sit out in your kitchen for several weeks before eating. Your easiest storage method is to leave the fruits on the tree for months and pick them when you’re ready. You’ll find delight not only in the massive amounts of fruit, but also in the dark green leaves that turn fall shades of red, orange, and yellow.

Bugs and diseases are rarely problems. Small amounts of fertilizer will keep your tree more than happy. You don’t even need a strict pruning regimen. Simply prune for size control and crossed or dangled limbs.

This self-pollinating fruit tree will become the pride of your yard. Ripe, delicious persimmons will delight your taste buds from fall to winter. The Fuyu will provide months of fresh fruits for eating out of hand or for numerous recipes like cookies and pudding.
