Never bitter, only sweet! The Hachiya Asian Persimmons are so delicious and tasty when eaten fresh! Allow these fast growing fruit to soften on the tree and become the consistency of pudding or ice cream. Perfect for fresh eating right off the tree, using in baked goods, or drying for later use. Fruit is seedless meaning that it does't require another variety for cross pollination. The potted plant will come rooted in our nursery container with a large root system and ready to planting, they are not seedlings! The fruit is delicious and full of sugar. Grow an organic fruit tree! It does not have a pulp. Flowers are produced in spring and fruit will mature during fall. Grow this tree across the southern United States in zones 7-10.
