*Northern Persimmon
This year we're also offering 3-year field grown 90-Chromosome Persimmons, which are 3'-4' with good limb structure.
Our Persimmon trees are cold hardy, 90-Chromosome and are native to northern U.S.. Persimmons can easily adapt to poor, dry soil or to wet conditions, however, well-drained soil and full sun are ideal for optimal growth and fruit set. Typical characteristics of the northern Persimmon tree, such as the one we offer, include a very deep anchoring tap root system. This is why planting a very young tree is ideal in order to assure an early, deep established root system, unlike an apple tree. Northern Persimmons produce a large tree at maturity and a dense cropping of fruit that matures late fall into winter and is highly attractive to Whitetails and other wildlife. These trees are slow growers and can take five to ten years to produce. We recommend mulching and feeding with some type of soluble fertilizer and having a regular watering schedule in order to help expedite your tree growth. This picture shows the specific giant Northern Persimmon we used for seed. From the many seedlings this tree has put out in adjacent hedge rows, it’s clear that once a seedling makes it though its initial young stage, which can be vulnerable to below zero conditions, mid-size to larger trees are no longer impacted. Northern Persimmons are listed as hardy to -25 degrees Fahrenheit. Thousands are planted each year across many of the northern states for large native reestablishment projects. Wildlife Species: Whitetail, Turkey and Birds.
Planting zones 5-9.
