Yates Persimmon Tree

 Allow us to introduce the fabulous Yates Persimmon Tree – a fruit-filled treasure that will bring a burst of flavor to your garden!

Get ready to indulge in the mouthwatering goodness of this grafted female American Persimmon, which has a delightful twist: it falls into the astringent category, meaning you need to wait for the fruit to ripen before experiencing its full, lip-smacking potential. This variety was founded in southern Indiana.

The Yates Persimmon tree produces scrumptious, medium to large sized fruits that are like little bursts of pure bliss. Imagine sinking your teeth into a piece of fruit that's a delectable mix of sweetness and tartness, with hints of apricot and honey dancing on your tongue. Fruits 2 1/8 inch in diameter that ripen in late August to late September. It's a very productive and seedless variety and does not require another pollinator.

The Yates Persimmon tree is a perfect fit for most gardens. It reaches a mature height of around 30-50 feet tall but can be maintained at a smaller size of 15-20 feet for easy picking.

Give this tree a prime spot in your garden where it can bask in full sun, soaking up all the warmth and energy it needs to produce those mouthwatering fruits. Yates Persimmon can grow almost anywhere due to its tolerance of heat and cold.

It can tolerate a variety of soil types, from loamy to sandy, but it does best in well-draining soil. Just like us, it appreciates a good drink but doesn't want to be sitting with wet feet all day. So make sure you choose a well-draining spot in your garden to avoid any soggy soil!

Ready to grow your own Yates Persimmon tree? Well, it's as easy as pie – or should I say, persimmon? Simply plant it in well-draining soil, add some compost or organic matter to give it a nutrient boost, and water it thoroughly. Then, sit back and watch as this beauty grows and flourishes in your garden, rewarding you with a harvest of tantalizingly tangy fruits. Remember, though, patience is key with astringent varieties – you'll have to wait for the fruits to ripen before savoring their mouthwatering taste.

The Yates Persimmon Tree is a fabulous addition to any garden. With its delectable fruits, manageable size, and easy-growing nature, it's a true winner for both novice gardeners and seasoned pros. Plant one today and get ready to enjoy the sweet rewards of your own persimmon paradise. Happy planting and may your garden be filled with fantastic harvests!
