Another happy seedling that seems to like the home we gave it.  It will be long time before i can look up at a tree, but enjoying the progress nonetheless.

Persimmon - Nightingale (A)

death by careless husband and invading cow - it got pulled out and then broken at the base by the beast who got into the orchard when he didn't shut the "gate" properly.  THere is also something about that particular corner of the orchard - two apricots planted in the same spot have failed to thrive and now my healthy little persimmon has been trampled!
