Nice looking trees and that looks like alot of asparagus. Lol

[@jkochosc]

It’s amazing how much asparagus you can eat when there’s a lot available!

@@jkochosc I bet! I put crowns in every year. My patch is growing slowly as they get established, but that would be a fantastic problem to have in the garden.

Very good explanation,my biggest persimmon turned into a male,i have three smaller ones that are struggling because apfids and caterpillar attack them every year before new growth can grow,how can i keep them away.

Im so jealous.. I tried to grow from seed this year, but none sprouted. I live in Norway, and there is virtually no nurseries selling any cultivars or seeds here. I will try again next season, if I can find fresh seeds online 😊

[@jkochosc]

Jeg synes du skal se i Ukraina, kanskje de kan sende dem til deg i Norge. Mange av hybridene kommer derfra

[@Olvee]

@@jkochoscbra Norsk-skills 😉 ok, litt usikker på tilgjengelighet atm. Takk for tipset 👍

[@locdupandfree]

Is there any way to determine the sex while they are small? I’m attempting to grow from seeds from the fruit.

[@jkochosc]

There are no known methods for doing that short of genetic sampling. I wish there were! If I had a lot of resources I would research the question in a methodical way but alas...I have no such resources!

So, not too late to graft?

[@jkochosc]

Now it is I think. The bark will no longer be slipping.

[@agpawpaw5912]

I think persimmon not to easy to graft. Low success

[@jkochosc]

What method are you using?
