{"id":4512293355654,"title":"American Persimmon Tree","handle":"american-persimmon-tree","description":"\u003cp\u003ehe American Persimmon Tree (Diospyros virginiana) is a southeastern U.S. native tree that is easily recognized in winter by its unusual rugged, blocky bark. Female trees produce large orange-brown fleshy fruit that are edible after the first frost. Thick, dark green leaves turn a yellow fall color. Persimmon fruit is quite astringent when green, but upon ripening becomes sweet and may be eaten off the tree. Fruits are commonly used in syrups, jellies, ice creams or pies. Ripe fruits are too soft for shipping\/sale. Persimmon leaves can be used to make teas. Persimmon is a member of the ebony family. The wood is extremely hard and has been used to make golf club heads and billiard cues. This tree grows at a fast rate.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHEIGHT: 25-60'\u003cbr\u003eWIDTH: 25-35'\u003cbr\u003ePrefers full sun to partial shade\u003cbr\u003eZones: 4-9\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat you are purchasing is an American Persimmon Tree, featuring GTSuper Roots, at a size and quantity of your choosing.
