Notes
'Hana Fuyu' persimmon (Diospyros kaki 'Hana Fuyu') is a fruit tree grown for fresh eating, drying, and desserts in the food garden. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full sun. The tree stays compact at about 10 feet tall, so it suits small gardens and containers. It is self-fertile, so you need only one tree. The fruit is non-astringent and sweet, and you can pick it firm like an apple.
Pairs well with Blueberry, Artichoke, and Mondo grass.
