Diospyros kaki 'Izu' (Japanese Persimmon)

A non astringent very sweet and flavourful dark orange fruits ripening a month before Fuyu. Naturally small tree is productive and very ornamental. Izu persimmons are a small to medium-sized varietal with a round, square, to slightly flattened shape. The persimmon’s skin is smooth, semi-thin, and taut with a faint sheen, showcasing vibrant shades of bright orange to golden-orange hues. The fruit is also capped with 3-4 flat green-brown dried leaves, having a papery and leathery consistency. Underneath the surface, the flesh is aqueous, dense, and crisp with a soft and tender texture. The flesh is generally pale orange and is either found seedless or contains a few oval seeds. Izu persimmons should feel heavy for their size and have a rich, mild, and sweet flavor with honeyed, sugary nuances. H 4-5m x W 2.5-4m.
