How to Grow a Persimmon Tree, Complete Growing Guide!

[@shinehong538]

Hi! So I'm a 6th grader and I'm 11 years old, but ever since I was little, i ALWAYS wanted this HUGE garden like you because it just looks cool, i love cooking, i love gardening, and like Tuck, i LOVE snacking on things/I'm a HUUUUGGGEE foodie! Your channel just makes me more inspired to achieve your kind of garden, and I am so lucky I found your channel! Your channel makes me so happy and i just LOVE it! Funny thing, I just ate some permissions my mom peeled for me!:) Thanks for doing KZbin and making my day better and PLEASE keep on doing KZbin and gardening FOREVER so that I can learn a lot once I get to have my own garden! I also like how you explain all of the foods and the SPECIFIC name!:) You're so talented! I wish I could have a garden like you. (I also want chickens too!) Thank you again!

[@leochiang6659]

I hope you have a community garden or access to backyard and start growing! James brings so much joy to the edible landscape!

[@petekooshian5595]

I was like you when I was your age! I'm 26 now, and I can say gardening is the most fulfilling and satisfying activity in the world! Keep growing, and stay interested!

[@dogslobbergardens6606]

It's awesome to hear young people getting excited about gardening! When I was a little boy my grandparents and parents let me hang out in their gardens and help them. I'm 52 now and still gardening. 🙂

[@artgalleryandcraftsbydeb9135]

It is so good seeing young people interested in gardening. After all we need food and if you can become self sufficient that that is wonderful. We have canned for over 50 years. Hope you keep learning and HAPPY GARDENING, GOD BLESS.

[@gailsegal6843]

Awe, that's wonderful that you take an interest in gardening, I was just like you when I was younger, had such a love for gardening and nature. You WILL someday have a most beautiful garden dear, just like me.... in fact, you can start planting now. Wish you the prettiest garden!❤

[@govindasgarden]

persimmons are such a gift for fruit lovers like myself... something late in the season to enjoy. your tree looks awesome. i have a nikita's gift in the ground that i planted 1 year ago. it hasn't showed much growth yet, but i remember you saying that "the first year they sleep, the second year they creep, the third year they leap". 🙏

[@napoleonbonaparte7204]

Not sure what is going on? We have 3 small trees and they don't grow much year after year either?

[@acrophobe]

James, your enthusiasm and passion for gardening are infectious. A lot of things about KZbin make me a bit jaded and pessimistic about the platform, but every now and then a channel like yours comes along and reminds me of the potential of KZbin and how it gives a platform to born educators and entertainers to do what they love best for a wide audience. Keep up the great work.

well said and something that I am sure is echoed by many of us

[@Acts-1322]

Absolutely.

[@TheMillennialGardener]

I saw this post last night, and I’ve been waiting all day to finally sit and watch it. Persimmons are quickly becoming one of my favorite fruits, and I cannot wait until my two trees get as large and full as yours. There are a lot of astringent Asian varieties as well. My ‘Giombo’ is an Asian cultivar and has some of the largest fruits in circulation, but it is one of the few persimmons that blooms early and can be a frost risk, unfortunately.

[@jazandriz]

Persimmon trees are the prettiest in the winter. They look like they have christmas ornaments on them. I planted Nikita's gift a couple years ago after watching James enjoying it. Hopefully next year it will fruit!

[@ohio_gardener]

The Persimmon (Diospyros virginiana) tree is a native plant here in southern Ohio, and they are very large trees - up to 50' tall. The fruit is delicious after a couple fall frosts, and they make some wonderful Persimmon Jam. The hard part is harvesting enough of them before the Raccoons get them.

[@resourcefulgirl]

Good to know. I'm out of S. OH as well and just moved into my homestead last week. I have trees growing in 5 gallon buckets at my old place to start an orchard. I'm new at this and was wondering if it's too late to plant them now. My move in date was delayed 9 times because of supply chain issues during the build hence, the trees aren't planted. Do you post videos?

[@ohio_gardener]

@@resourcefulgirl No, it isn't too late as long as the ground is not frozen. If you would like to get some native Persimmon tree seedlings, check with your County Extension Office about their tree sale next spring to see if they will include the Persimmon.

[@lukedejour]

James I appreciate your growing videos as someone who is local to you (Philly). Would love to see you do a video on how you preserve/utilize food that you grow throughout the year. Sometimes we grow too much food and don’t want it to go to waste. Freezing, canning, jams, freeze dry, etc…

[@johngreen4147]

Japan has the best persimmon I've ever eaten!! Persimmons are everywhere in the countryside. We can buy 10~12 persimmons for less than $10. I sundried 150 astringent persimmons, deep-frozen sweet ones this year. Sundried persimmons are the sweetest. I inherited and grow persimmons myself. Your info is helpful. Thanks.

[@lindahill7315]

I bought 3 Asian persimmons, one last year and 2 this year. I am growing in pots until a bit bigger so they don't get ran over by my lawn care. Also bought 6 apples this year. Your information on care is very useful

[@mikel5582]

Nice harvest with some really good information on branch angle and pruning. I've found persimmon wood to be brittle and the braches break easily rather than bending, so it's important to thin a heavy crop or support the branches. Regarding pests, my biggest issue is mammals. I have to harvest my Fuyu and Haichiya before they're ripe or the raccoons will do a lot of damage to the branches. Persimmon freeze really well and are excellent in smoothies with the frozen persimmon adding amazing richness. As a matter of fact, I was drinking one as this video dropped along with freshly harvested pomegranate. 😋

My mother in law who lived in the depression era loved persimmons. Her favorite way to eat them was to put the whole in a zip lock bag and put them in the freezer. Then she would eat them like a popsicle!! She said as a little girl that was a treat on a hot summer day!!

[@pamelabratton2501]

I have a Fuyu and an American persimmon this year! Never heard of your type but WILL find one to plant. ALL Persimmon tastes like HEAVEN!

[@UnderAPileOfScrap]

I have wanted a Persimmon tree. I'm always afraid of the deer eating them or the coons, then I'd be upset. I never had them before until about 8 years ago, I tried some persimmon pudding that a little old lady made at a festival and it was amazing, then I tried persimmon cookies that I bought from an Amish family. SO good!

[@karendixon401]

When fully ripe they make a very moist bread and with spices this time of year so special for the holidays.

[@UnderAPileOfScrap]

@@karendixon401 I can just about imagine! The persimmon "pudding" had more like a thin cake or brownie consistancy than like a pudding.

[@jcweld]

Don't worry about it, plant it anyway. I have a lot of deer, and they've never damaged the tree or eaten the leaves. They might take some of the fruit (and I'm not even sure about that), but I still end up with tons.

I have a Nikita’s Gift from Logees I’m going to get in the ground after the last freeze in a week or so. I already have a mature Japanese persimmon tree that produces unbelievable amounts. I ordered two more different varieties from Logees too. I grow a lot of roses in north FL and the persimmon trees give great shade for potted roses in the summer and no shade for the winter months. It’s a great match up. Great vid!

Tree ripe persimmons taste heavenly. It's difficult for people who never tried to imagine. It is superior to mango, apple, pear, pineapple, orange, etc. It is super sweet, creamy, and has a fascinating persimmon fragrance. Unfortunately, they don't ship unless completely frozen. Unripe ones have bad taste and need up to 2 weeks to become sweet.

[@petekooshian5595]

Agreed! The flavor is very difficult to describe unless you try them!

Agree! We have an astringent Fuju Persimmon tree here in Maryland, Zone 5. It’s about 10 years in the ground now (2022) and it might have been 2-3 year old tree when purchased. The last few years we have picked & enjoyed luscious, tasty fresh persimmon fruit in mid-November. We picked, skinned & froze our bounty & made persimmon pie this year for Thanksgiving. It’s now 27 Nov & there are about 75 beauties just about ready to pick. A few days of sub-freezing wxr & frosts made the big change. Bingo too on the leaves once they turn. Orange & yellow hues. Persimmon is a win, win, win. Easy to grow, little maintenance or water, scrumptious fruit. The taste - a combo of fresh mango & papaya!

[@vj563]

Do you check the seed to see what the winter forecast will be? I saw that's a thing with persimmon trees. I was wondering what the inside of the seed looked like. Lots of people are coming up with "spoons" on theirs, but they're not in this region. It's amazing how much fruit is on that tree.

My hybrid is doing great in Virginia 7B. Great curb appeal, especially in the fall. Low to no maintenance. Fruit tastes great. Although wildlife might like the fruit, they don't damage the tree at all. Persimmon, jujube, fig, and paw paw all do great here, and you can't buy the trees or fruit locally. That's crazy. Apples, pears, stone fruit, all are big headaches to grow without chemicals, so I'd rather buy them at the store and grow the unique stuff I can't buy.

[@afrocraft1]

Hi there, if you don't mind me asking: Don't the deer come for your persimmons? And which hybrid did you plant and why?

[@jcweld]

@@afrocraft1 They don't eat enough for me to notice. Maybe when they are ripe, but I never have many losses. And trust me, the deer are in the yard. I can't grow a Mulberry tree because they get devoured. I have a Nikita's Gift because it was the only hybrid I knew of. 7B is marginal for the pure Asian varieties.

You have the nicest soil Ive ever seen.. I'd like to know what those white chunks are in your soil? Pummice? Course perlite? I've been having garden destroying Northern Corn Rootworm Beetles(mostly pure green non striped) infest my garden for the last 3 years and it's making me want to give up on gardening. They eat every flower that isnt marigold but also sit on those plants as well. They seem to LOVE petunias, dahlias, and zucchini flowers..... I haven't had a good harvest of tomatoes or peppers since they came. I've tried growing zucchini 3 years in a row and haven't gotten a single one. Two different varieties but I think its because of those stupid wisconsin bugs that came down into illinois(probably because the nearby monoculture corn farmers changed their seed type). I read that they like plants with lots of nitrogen more than others so I thought getting rid of my purple clover and summer alfalfa two years ago would help(I was growing those for my compost). It did not help.These bugs have made me hate gardening but I don't want to give up. There has to be some way to get them away from my garden... I also do not want to spray chemicals........ I've tried vinegar solutions and yeast solutions that don't do crap. I really don't want to use sticky traps either because last time I tried that I killed a lot of grasshoppers on accident. I never see grasshoppers destroying my plants so I don't like killing them. The variety of Northern Corn Rootworm Beetle I seem to have the most of is the non striped pure green colored one but sometimes I get the pure tan colored ones too.. Any ideas on how to make them go away??
