I'm experimenting with grafting and picked up 25 wild persimmon seedlings earlier this spring for practice.
pm me if you are interested in some wood or a future grafted seedling - scions were gathered last winter.

Very popular in Korea. They make a punch with dried persimmons called Soo Jeung Ga.
If you have, or know anyone that has been suffering from, reflux disease - GERD. The daily use of persimmons
will wipe it out entirely. For good!!!!
