Fruit, Persimmon
Common Persimmon is a beautiful native tree that doubles as an edible landscape specimen, offering ornamental merit across all four seasons alongside a generous harvest of sweet, richly flavored orange fruit in fall. Growing to an impressive 30–40 feet with an upright habit in full sun, it makes a striking specimen in a larger yard or naturalized setting. The fruit is best after a frost has softened the flesh and converted the starches to sugar — the result is a deeply sweet, honey-like flavor that’s exceptional fresh or dried. Vivid orange and gold fall foliage is among the most brilliant of any native tree. Fully resistant to deer, rabbits, insects, and disease, it supports birds and wildlife generously and tolerates Black Walnut. A durable, deeply rewarding tree for any landscape that has room for its full, impressive presence.
