Maekawa-Jiro (or Makawa) produces large, seedless persimmons with conical shape. They are firm and crunchy, with the sweet taste of fresh sugar cane. The time to pick is when the fruit turns orange and the flesh is still firm, like an apple. Non-Astringent. Fruiting time in September.
Maekawa-Jiro persimmon tree is a small grower, the trees rarely exceed 12 foot in height. A uniquely cold-hardy tropical tree. Excellent pest- and disease-resistance. This tree will also suffer heat, drought and humidity without flinching. Self-pollinating, but will produce more/larger fruit with a Jiro or Fuyu nearby. Fruit ripens mid-October through mid-November.
