This compact and productive tree thrives in U.S.D.A. zones 6-9. ? The Ichi Ki Kei Jiro, often called “Itchy,” is the hardiest of all Asian persimmons. It produces sweet, seedless fruit that can be eaten firm like an apple without any astringency. This dwarf variety grows to 8-10 feet in height and width, making it ideal for small gardens. It begins bearing medium to large orange fruit within 2-3 years. ? This self-pollinating persimmon ripens in September or October.
