November drop persimmon

[Sportsman94]

Anyone know of a variety that consistently drops in late October, November, early December? I’m in zone 8a and wanting to graft some later dropping varieties near a stand location. The only one I’ve seen mentioned is deer magnet, but I haven’t seen anywhere I can get scion wood for that variety. Thanks

Deer Magnet does drop in November here in 6B. I'm not sure how it would drop in 8A. England Orchard has DM scionwood listed for sale.

Red Fern Farm sells scionwood for a tree called Wapello, and they claim it drops all winter starting in November and going into March or April.

MIller drops here in October. I don't know of scion wood for sale, but Blue Hill sells trees grafted to that cultivar.

Thanks native hunter! I’ll check those out and see when they drop in my area

The web site shows currently sold out, but Blue Hill has persimmons that he lists for 4B.

I've not ordered from them, but Morse Nursery has a couple of cold hardy persimmons (Meader, Morse) available.

The people here have had trouble with morse

I have plenty of native Americans here in 8b. Fruit dropping now. I can send you some Scionwood if interested. Maybe an exchange. Let me know if interested

I’m 5a hovering to 4b. I’ve tried female grafted morse persimmons a handful of times (all the different varieties). Not a single graft has made it for me. Complete opposite for me with Bluehill.

MDC and Kansas forest service trees are cheap but not grafted. I’ve got 50 planted from KFS doing well in 60” tubes in a large deer orchard planting.

November 19th zone 6b or 7a for the climate change believers

My MDC trees have been in the ground 3 years and the female tree that survived fruited this year and is still holding strong.

3 year old seedlings fruited? Or you had some other persimmons in the ground nearby already?

 

[Charles Clear]

yes. 3 years, and yes there are other seedlings nearby some male, some female

That is incredible. Are you using tree tubes or cages?

Cages, but this area has the richest black dirt I've ever seen. It's low lying and gets pretty wet. Apples cannot live there. Pears do ok, but persimmons seem to love it.
