American Persimmon Seedlings

Northern 90-chromosome strain of Diospyros virginiana. 1-year-old bareroot seedlings. First year seedlings are between 12”-20” inches tall with taproots 12”-18” long. Basal calipers around 3/16s to a 1/4 inch — suitable as grafting understock, if need be. These are vigorous seedlings grown from the best American persimmons sourced from all-cultivar orchards. Persimmon trees come in male and female and a range of intersex combinations. It is recommended to plant at least 3-6 trees in order to get some productive female fruiting trees in the mix.
