Re: [nafex] Re: Persimmon recommendations for zone 5

   It is the best I have so far. I have had Golden supreme, early golden and 
all the other varieties that I could try so far. Most have been changed to 
other varieties for new trials. My seedlings are named Dean M, and Dean F 
M=male, F=female as these trees grew by each other and only ones on that 
property. It does have seeds, but very tasty. I am trying another that does 
well in Michigan for Corwin Davis. It is call Corwins. I hope to see how it 
does for me in a few years. I can look up the list of all I have tried if 
you wish. I had Yates
It wouldn't do anything here. I had gotten the scion wood from Yates years 
ago. I don't have much hope for Roseyenka, but am trying.

Gordon, you say that only one ripens and drops hardy persimmon. Which
might that be? Is it a seedling you grew yourself?

Lee, thanks for the tip about Roseyanka, I'll see if I can contact
Jerry Lehman about its hardiness, I think that Terre Haute is zone 6
though.
