Oriole™ Persimmon

Diospyros kaki 'Oriole'

WE CAN NOT SHIP THIS VARIETY TO CALIFORNIA.

This particular variety from Korea boasts sizeable, incredibly sweet and delicious fruit. An early ripener, it produces plentiful yields of deep, orange/red fruit that are astringent and ready to consume once they achieve a soft, tender texture - similar to a ripe tomato.

Extremely low chill, only needing 100-200 chill hours to reliably bloom and produce fruit. Provide regular summer water to keep fruit juicy and prevent premature fruit drop.

Cold Hardy to USDA Zone: 7
