Dwarf Persimmon - Fuyu (NA)
$69.00 ($69.00-$79.00 choose a size)
Fuyu is a semi-dwarf variety, not a true dwarf, but well suited to growing in small backyards as, with pruning, it can be kept to 2m high. The fruit is large and flat, orange-red in colour with a sweet, mild flavour. Great eaten crunchy but just luscious when left to go soft. Besides producing delicious fruit, Persimmons are highly ornamental with their beautiful autumn foliage. Non astringent, so can be eaten when still hard.
