Oriental Persimmons are one of the finest ornamental 

 plants we know. They have beautiful, waxy green foliage 

 through the summer which changes to rich, golden yellow 

 streaked with red in fall. The trees are rather slow growers 

 which makes them popular for small homesites. Tree 

 characteristics of Oriental Persimmons are outstanding 

 enough to merit space in any planting. Delicious fruit is 

 an added bonus. 



The Oriental persimmon is adapted to most regions 

 in the South and can be raised successfully as far 

 North as Penna. The trees are vigorous of growth and 

 bear young.
