Persimmon Trees - Weeping (Astringent) Oaks Sunlight: Thrives in full sunThe Weeping astringent persimmon is a very rare variety of Japanese persimmon. It has a weeping form and must be staked up when young. The weeping persimmon produces a medium sized, conical shaped fruit that hang off the tree like teardrops. This astringent persimmon ripens in late October through mid November. If staked, it can reach a height of 6 tall and 2 wide in 10 years. We graft the Weeping persimmon onto native American persimmon root stock.
