{"product_id":"imoto-fuyu-persimmon","title":"'Imoto Fuyu' Asian Persimmon","description":"\u003cp\u003eImoto Fuyu is an early-ripening Japanese non-astringent persimmon prized for its sweet, crisp fruit and reliable performance. The medium to large, flattened orange fruit can be enjoyed while still firm like an apple or allowed to soften slightly for an even richer, honeyed flavour. Unlike astringent persimmons, the fruit can be eaten before it is fully soft, making it an excellent choice for fresh eating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis attractive tree produces vibrant orange fruit in autumn, often remaining on the branches after the leaves have fallen for a spectacular display. With its relatively early ripening season, Imoto Fuyu is well suited to cooler climates where later persimmon varieties may not fully mature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommon names:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Imoto Fuyu Persimmon, Japanese Persimmon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEdible:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Fruit\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHarvest timing:\u003c\/strong\u003e October-November\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScientific name:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eDiospyros kaki \u003c\/em\u003e'Imoto Fuyu'\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLight requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFull-grown size:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 12-18' tall x 10-15' wide\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Zone 7\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePollination:\u003c\/strong\u003e Capable of setting fruit without pollination (parthenocarpic), which means you only need one tree to get fruit. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWildlife:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Not deer resistant.
