-Full Sun to Part Sun– Full size on Seedling Rootstock, 35-60′ tall
Sources disagree whether this is a pure American Persimmon or possibly an American/Asian cross, but its form is completely American. It bears large, less-astringent fruit that has a unique elongated shape – about the size and shape of an egg. Good texture, more firm when ripe than wild persimmons. 35-60′ tall. Zones 3-9

(Diospyrus kaki) -Full Sun to Part Sun– Dwarf on Seedling Rootstock, 8′ tall by 10′ wide, self-fertile
One of the hardiest Asian persimmons. Large fruits are firm and crunchy when ripe, and seedless. Early ripening. Great edible landscaping choice – care-free dwarf trees have glossy green leaves, good fall color, and the fruit will hang on the branches after leaf fall for a stunning specimen tree. Reaches just 8′ tall, spreading up to 10′ wide. Self fertile. Zones 6-10 very limited supply

(Diospyros virginiana x Diospyrus kaki) -Full Sun to Part Sun– Dwarf on Seedling Rootstock, Up to 12′ tall, self-fertile
This American/Asian 2nd generation hybrid (non-GMO) is reportedly a back-cross between ‘Rosseyanka’ above and the Kaki Asian persimmons. It boasts 2 1/2″ sweet, flavorful fruits that are soft when ripe. It gets its size and taste from its Asian persimmon parents, but it is as cold hardy as an American persimmon. Suitable for edible landscaping with it’s glossy leaves and attractive fall color. Reaches just 12′ tall. Commonly sold under a trademarked name which you can probably guess. Self-fertile. Zones 5-8

Nearly seedless 2-3″ large fruits. This American/Asian hybrid (non-GMO) takes after the American persimmons in leaf and form, reaching up to 25′ tall, but tastes like a good mix of the two types. Soft and wrinkly when ripe, like the American persimmon. Self-fertile. Zones 5-8

-Full Sun to Part Shade– Full size on seedling rootstock, space 15′-25′ apart, self fertile
This tree claims its parentage from Southern Indiana wild-growing mulberries. The earliest fruiting of the trees we have producing right now. Great producer of sweet but flavorful dark lavender fruit. Juice is less-staining than black fruited mulberries, but not completely clear. Has a more berry-like flavor than your typical non-staining white or lavender fruit (which tend to be very sweet but bland) – almost as flavorful as black mulberry fruits. Short but fat berries. Non-grafted, it roots very easily from cuttings. Self fertile.

Perhaps the single most useful tree for our area, the mulberry has copious amounts of delicious and nutritious (high protein, carbs, vitamins/minerals) fruit; is very fast-growing for quick shade and mulch production; leaves and stems are relished by most grazing livestock; and the wood is rot-resistant for fenceposts, etc. They are used in the silk industry to feed silkworms. Even on seedlings, fruits are borne over the course of weeks rather than ripening all at once like most tree fruits. Mulberries are delicious – they taste similar to raspberries, but with no noticeable seeds and no thorns. The only disadvantages are the staining quality of the dark fruits; need a ladder to harvest prime berries (except for ‘Gerardi’ dwarf!); and without pruning the trees can get messy-looking, holding onto dead branches and twigs. Mulberries can take some shade without suffering from lower production of berries. Height to 35’. Zones 5-9. Grafted trees on seedling rootstock.
