Nice! Where’d you source your trees? Mossy Oak Nativ? Found 5 dunstans at rural king for 1/2 off but all the others nativ..they were fantastic to deal with and Dudley helped out a lot as well!

I noticed 5 or 6 years ago that some of my plots had a little bush/tree that had a leaf like a persimmon. I left some of them in the plots. Sure enough they are persimmon trees. I have a lot n a few plots now, but some in almost all of them. They start producing persimmons in year 3 or 4. I left a LOT in one plot and I’m going to move some in the spring. I enjoy watching them grow and the grandkids and I eat a FEW of them. I have some big mature ones on a few properties and everything n woods loves persimmons. Lot o pics on camera when they are dropping n late fall. That’s awesome…I decided against planting them cause I could have wasted my space and gotten all males

You’d still need 1 male tree nearby to pollinate.

I got several of the Mexican plum from Nativ. I’m. Looking forward to those. My local co-op gets barefoot persimmons in and they’ll appear to be grafted. I’ve bought several but the area I’m planting in is already full of persimmons. But it’s about 80:1 male to female so far. Man that’s legit! Looking forward to seeing how yours goes as well. That sucks about the 80-1 😂. My next round I’ll do some more Dunstans, some nuttall oaks, crabapples…open to more suggestions.

Crab apple and persimmons don’t have much overlap on availability except for a few varieties of crabs that drop late. +1 on the watering as mentioned above.

I hope the tree tubes do well. I did not have the time for cages.
