Thanks Casie and Anna for nice compliments.
Those Fuyo persimmons are eaten fresh and while still firm. Once it gets soft it is not as good but still very sweet. It is just like eating a very sweet apple but the texture is like silk.
It may look a lot but I have many friends who would give their right arm for those fruits so there is no problem getting rid of them. I guess that's why I have so many friends (lol).
My sister sometimes make persimmon cake and it is so delicious but I don't know how. Let alone making a crust for it.
I also have 3 Fuji apple trees but that is a different story.
I'll post their pics later.
Casie, those trees are the smaller kind and only about 12 feet high. I planted them around 1987. They don't grow very big.
