'Saijo' Persimmon

*Local pickup only, no shipping*

OUR MOST RECOMMENDED VARIETY!

One of the tastiest and most productive varieties of Asian persimmon (Diospyros kaki) for Central Florida and most of the Southeast USA

Carefree tree that produces lots of fruit

We grow out our own native persimmon seedlings to use as rootstock for grafting select cultviars like Saijo onto

Does well in full sun

Can tolerate both moist and dry soil conditions once established

Mature size 15ft wide x 15-25ft tall without pruning

Protect fruit bearing trees from deer if present 

You may notice we grow our persimmon trees in tall pots. This is due to the reality that persimmon trees have taproots which are damaged when grown in pots that are too shallow.

Tall pots foster healthy root growth so that you get a tree that grows vigorously!
