Dwarf Persimmon - Ichikikijiro (NA)

Within a couple of weeks after planting, signs of growth appeared and the tree is now happily putting out new branches and leaves. Looking forward to seeing its progress and fruit. I chose this plant for its dwarf habitat and non-astringent fruit.

Planted at the begining of August, layed dormant until mid October when buds started to blossom. Looks promissing. Customer service and packaging was excellent. Also a big thank you to Jenny for her help and advice.

Almost killed it last summer, but reshot this spring. Grows happily in a small pot with a little bit of compost and manure.  Update Jan17- Had a few fruit but was stressed and dropped them, Sad that I lost a crop but will try again.
