| Did anyone else get fruits on their persimmon trees this year?
I didnt and wondered if that late frost in Easter did it. Does anyone know if these trees are male and female seperate plants? |

| No persimmons for me here in Central Missouri... Nor any other fruit except a few blackberries. Do you have American persimmons? I had to google this, but trees are either male or female. One site said female trees can produce seedless fruit if no pollinator... I thought that was interesting |

| I found some persimmon's that did fruit this year and I live in St. Joseph, MO. They are at the Mark Youngdahl CA in town. I thought that the trees had to be pollinated by another tree to produce fruit????????? Learn something new every day. |

| We live in Indiana and my one persimmon tree was loaded with fruit. I collected seed from somewhere and brought them home and just threw them in the flower bed. I am always gathering seed from wherever we go. I also got a chickapin oak the same way. Both are way taller than our house in three or four years. This is thefirst year for persimmons though. |
