{"product_id":"izu-persimmon-tree","title":"Izu Persimmon Tree","description":"\u003cp\u003eIzu offers very sweet, non-astringent persimmons with an earlier harvest than Fuyu. Its rounded, medium-to-large fruit can be enjoyed while firm, making it a convenient choice for fresh eating. Dave Wilson Nursery reports ripening approximately three weeks ahead of Fuyu, a useful distinction when planning a fall fruit harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIzu is self-fruitful and has a relatively small tree habit, although this offering is grafted on standard D. lotus rootstock. Plant in full sun and well-drained soil. Give the young tree room to establish, water thoughtfully, and use pruning to maintain an accessible canopy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat you receive:\u003c\/strong\u003e One dormant bare-root tree on the rootstock listed below.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIzu Persimmon Tree Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFruit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Round, medium-to-large, very sweet non-astringent fruit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUses:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fresh Eating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApproximate harvest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early Fall; timing varies with climate and season\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7–10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWinter chill:\u003c\/strong\u003e 200 hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTree size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePollination:\u003c\/strong\u003e Self-fruitful\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRootstock:\u003c\/strong\u003e D. lotus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plant while dormant; keep bare roots moist until planting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial care:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plant in full sun and well-drained soil, and water in to settle soil around the roots.
