American Persimmon | 6-100 Organic Seeds | Diospyros Virginiana | US Fruit

Description: The American Persimmon is native to large portions of the Southeastern United States, found naturally in Florida, as far West as parts of Texas and Kansas, and as far North as parts of Pennsylvania and New Jersey. It can be grown in USDA hardiness zones 4b, 4a, 5b, 5a, 6b, 6a, 7b, 7a, 8b, 8a, 9b, and 9a and prefers full sunlight or partial shade (2-6 hours of sun per day). The American Persimmon fruit is as also known as a "sugar plum." A male and female tree must both be present for pollination and fruiting to occur on the female tree. Fruit production typically occurs 4-9 years after propogation from seed. The fruit of the American Persimmon is rare to find for purchase at grocery stores or other vendors. Fruit production occurs in the fall, with many growers preferring to gather fruit shortly after the first frost. The fruit is high in vitamin C, and extremely astringent when unripe. Once ripened, the fruit is softer, often wrinkled, and sweet and luscious. American Persimmons can be eaten raw or used in recipes such as syrups, puddings, pies, wines, ice creams, and jellies. The fruit is eaten by birds, raccoons, skunks, white-tailed deer, semi-wild hogs, flying squirrels, and opossums. The heartwood of the tree is very dark, hard, and dense (the tree is related to ebony), and is used in the manufacture of golf club heads, billiard cues and shoe lasts. For more information about the American Persimmon tree, please read the wikipedia and North Carolina State University articles linked below! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diospyros_virginianahttps://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/diospyros-virginiana/ The seeds offered here for sale are from a mature American Persimmon tree grown near Raleigh, North Carolina, and have been gathered from ripe fruit born in the most recent season. They are available in quantities of 6 seeds, 12 seeds, 24 seeds, 50 seeds, or 100 seeds. If you have any questions let me know!
