This Asian Persimmon Is The BEST Fruit I've Ever Tasted!

In this video, I share my first harvest from my Giombo persimmon tree. This astringent persimmon tree has been in ground for 3 seasons, and it produced its first ripe fruit. What followed left me almost at a loss for words. This Asian persimmon may be the best fruit I've ever tasted in my life. You have to see the results firsthand! Every backyard needs a persimmon tree, because you can't buy them easily in grocery stores, and because persimmon trees are one of the easiest fruit trees to grow. Some persimmon species are native to the United States, so they are well adapted to the climate and are mostly free of pests and diseases. The tree featured in this video is an Asian persimmon grafted onto American persimmon rootstock, and while this persimmon variety is one of the later varieties to bear mature fruit, it's worth every minute of the wait because the ripe fruit is absolutely incredible!
