Persimmon pie time.
There's a lot of people with persimmons here in Jacksonville, NC. The Starbucks in Jacksonville has an American persimmon next to their parking lot.

Hey you should try growing pepino melons since you now have an indoor area for them.
WOW ! That was a lot of research. Thank you so very much for a remarkably well presented video.
I appreciate it.
My young Chocolate and Coffee Cake persimmon trees are getting so tall and I want to keep them "backyard orchard" short. I can't seem to find persimmon specific information on when is the right time of year to prune them back. It seems like they might require a different schedule than Dave Wilson's advice for most other deciduous fruit trees due to the fact that they fruit in fall/winter rather than in summer. They also have sappy branches, so should we wait till the tree is dormant (after fruiting) to prune?
This was a very well researched video! Your videos are usually very educational showing the level of research expended by you in your videos! Well done! I am in South Florida. It is here but not the names you mentioned. When found, I will splurge to buy these incredibly delicious fruit!
Lol. My neighbor gave me some orange ones and I didn’t know anything about persimmons. I thought they were ripe so I took a slice and it was so yucky! Left my mouth so dry.. I never wanted to try another one, ever. You make them sound delicious..😁 Now I Know… wait til ripe, soften! Thank you for great information👍
