The American Persimmon Tree is a landscape treasure that rewards you with both striking visual appeal and delicious, honey-sweet autumn fruits. It is perfect for adding reliable shade and a fresh harvest to your backyard. Thriving in full sun, this native beauty matures to about 25 feet tall. While local wildlife might covet the fallen fruit, the mature tree itself is largely deer-resistant across Zones 7 and 8.
To give your new persimmon the strongest start, thoroughly blend your garden's native soil with Watters Premium Mulch to improve drainage and provide essential root insulation. Feed it right away with 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food to encourage deep rooting and a more abundant, flavorful harvest. Once established, this resilient, low-maintenance tree becomes drought-tolerant, giving your family generations of brilliant orange autumn foliage, reliable summer shade, and uniquely sweet treats directly from the branch.

🪴Is it safe to ship plants during extreme heat or cold?
We watch the weather maps like hawks. If a heatwave or a freeze is rolling through, we'll hold your
shipment in our climate-controlled nursery until it's safe to travel. We'd rather wait a week to ship a
healthy plant than rush a dead one to your door.
