In this product description, we'll guide you through everything you need to know about the Matsumoto Persimmon Tree, from its growth requirements to the irresistible fruit it bears.

Growing Information

Zone Compatibility: The Matsumoto Persimmon Tree, scientifically known as Diospyros kaki 'Matsumoto,' thrives in USDA hardiness zones 7-10. This tree thrives in regions with moderate winters and warm, sunny summers.

Size: At maturity, a Matsumoto Persimmon Tree typically stands at a height of 15-20 feet, forming an elegant, compact canopy that fits beautifully in gardens and orchards alike.

Chill Hours: Matsumoto Persimmon Trees require approximately 100-200 chill hours during their dormant season, experiencing temperatures at or below 45°F (7°C). Adequate chill hours are essential for robust fruit development.

Planting: Select a well-drained location with full sun exposure for your Matsumoto Persimmon Tree. Plant during the spring or fall, providing ample space for root growth and establishment.

Pruning: Annual pruning is crucial to shape the tree, improve air circulation, and encourage fruit production. Prune during the dormant season to promote healthy growth and abundant harvests.

Watering: Matsumoto Persimmon Trees benefit from consistent moisture, particularly during their early years. Water deeply and regularly, avoiding waterlogged soil to protect the roots.

Fruit Description

Flavor: The Matsumoto Persimmon is celebrated for its unparalleled sweet flavor profile. These fruits offer a delightful combination of honeyed sweetness, subtle notes of apricot, and a touch of floral essence. Prepare for a burst of taste bud excitement.

Texture: When fully ripe, Matsumoto Persimmons feature a sumptuously smooth, custard-like texture that practically dissolves in your mouth. It's a textural indulgence that sets them apart from other fruits.

Color: As they ripen, Matsumoto Persimmons undergo a captivating transformation, transitioning from green to a lustrous, deep orange. Their vivid coloration is not just appealing; it signals the perfect time for harvesting.

Harvest Time: Matsumoto Persimmons are typically ready for harvest in the late fall, typically from October to November. Harvest them when they have turned a rich orange hue and have a slightly soft feel to the touch.

Pollination: Matsumoto Persimmon Trees are self-fruitful, which means they can produce fruit without the need for another pollinator tree. Nevertheless, planting multiple trees can enhance cross-pollination, potentially resulting in more substantial yields and even tastier fruit.

The Matsumoto Persimmon Tree is a sensory delight for your garden or orchard. With minimal effort, you can cultivate a plentiful harvest of these exquisite fruits while adding elegance to your outdoor space. Elevate your garden's allure and relish the extraordinary sweetness of Matsumoto Persimmons year after year.
