30 Persimmon Seeds Organic Fruit Tree Seed Heirloom Diospyros
Trees and shrubs from the Ebony family live for hundreds of years, differ in appearance, shape and shade of fruits. Although the first persimmons were cultivated by the Chinese, the largest berries surprise varieties grown in South America. In the countries of Transcaucasia and Greece, trees with miniature fruits weighing less than 50 grams are planted. Israeli breeders have created a seedless Sharon. Growing persimmons is not so difficult to do, if you know the characteristics of the selected variety.
Trees from the Ebony family reach 15 meters in height, shrubs — 5. The oval leaves of the persimmon, which are pointed at the ends, fall off every year. The outer side of them is shiny, and the inner side is matte. The diameter of the fruit in some varieties is only 2 cm, in others it reaches 15. The berries hang on the tree when there are no leaves at all, which turn a bright red color before falling, but the plant does not remain without them for long.
How the fruit looks depends on the stage of maturation, and on the variety. In a ripe fruit, the skin becomes reddish, and the flesh becomes like jelly, loses its tart taste. There are 5-7 seeds in the berries, but hybrids may not have grains.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS:
In a temperate climate, a tropical crop will not please with high yields of large fruits, even when choosing an early variety, but if you annually prune the crown, the southern plant will perfectly decorate the garden.
Lovers of indoor flowers plant persimmons in tubs and vases. It takes root well if you choose high-quality seeds. You can prepare the seed material yourself from a ripe and healthy fruit. Germinate the bones in a wet cloth, wrapping them in cellophane. In a warm place after 2 or 3 weeks, sprouts appear.
The second method is suitable for those who are going to grow the crop in the open ground. In order not to buy a wild bird, a young tree should be bought in a nursery. Planting is carried out in the spring, the root neck should be deepened by about 10 cm by grafting on the southern side. The ground is lightly rammed, watered, and mulched.
In the garden, low trees are placed according to the 3 x 3 scheme, 7 meters are left between the tall varieties. When buying a high-quality seedling, persimmon can please with fruits already in the third year, if you create all the necessary conditions for it.
In order for the tropical culture to perform not only decorative functions, but also to flourish luxuriantly, reward the harvest, the place for planting the tree is chosen on the site where the piercing wind does not blow, there are no drafts. Any soil is suitable, except for swampy soils and salt marshes. In a temperate climate, frost-resistant early varieties normally take root, and trees are planted in the spring. For several years, they will have to be carefully covered for the winter.
After selecting the seeds from the ripe persimmon fruits, they can be planted at home in a pot. After stratification, the seeds are deepened by 1 or 2 cm into the soil prepared from: humus; turf earth; wood ash; bone meal; coarse sand.
The container is covered with glass, regularly ventilated. After the emergence of sprouts, the seedlings are transplanted into other pots and left on the windowsill.
The southern plant will develop well if you create optimal conditions for it, know how to care for a tropical guest.
In addition to the heat and sun, the roots and leaves of the tree need a lot of moisture, but it should not stagnate. It is useful to spray persimmons with warm water, and it is better to do it in the evenings. How often to water the plant in the garden depends on the weather. In an arid climate, irrigation will have to be done every day, loosening and mulching the land in the trunk circle.
During the planting of the tree, a bucket of rotted manure and a glass of superphosphate are brought into the pit, well mixed with the earth. After a couple of months, the plant is fertilized with a liquid solution of vermicompost. For top dressing, chicken droppings, wood ash, compost, and slurry are suitable. In the first years, nutrients are added to the trunk circle.
The tropical guest is distinguished by a long growing season. If the persimmon is planted in the shade, the leaves will curl, the ovary will crumble. The tree will develop normally only if there are at least 2 thousand light hours, otherwise it will have to be planted in a greenhouse, where additional lamps will be installed.
Persimmon loves the sun, in the summer it feels great at 20-30 °C, but the cold winter may not survive. Even frost-resistant varieties planted in the open ground need to be covered, at minus 20 the roots suffer, the shoots freeze out.
When the height of the tree reaches half a meter, the crown begins to form, the side branches are shortened so as to give it the appearance of a ball. The main shoot is pinched, regular thinning helps to prevent thickening, it is better to do this in the fall, summer pruning provides for the removal of dried branches.
If the tropical guest is grown not in the open ground, but on the windowsill, the pot to the roots becomes cramped after a while. Persimmon is transplanted into a new container, with a diameter greater than 3 cm. In the open ground in the southern regions, the tree is moved in the spring, digging a hole 60 cm deep. In cold climates, it is better to grow a tropical crop in a tub, and in summer take it out on the balcony or in the garden.
At what time to engage in the propagation of persimmons, depends on the chosen method. Cuttings are planted as soon as the threat of returning frosts passes. Bones need to be harvested in the fall and immediately germinate, oculation can be performed in August.
In indoor conditions, it is convenient to propagate persimmons with seeds, the inoculation is made in the open ground. If a fruit-bearing tree grows in the garden, you can perform green cuttings.
