[QUOTE="JimFromTN, post: 2220704, member: 113268"] Yates American Persimmon are rated hardiness zone 4-10. You can find them on Starkbros. Starkbros are good and will let you know if the trees you are looking at are in your zone. They also have a 1 year guarantee. Their trees have done better than all the other tress I have purchased. They are nursery prices so if you are wanting to get co-op prices, you need to look somewhere else. I know there are co-op type places that practically give away saplings but I am looking for more mature trees. I have planted nothing but fruit trees up to this point. I am not big on planting things that don't produce food or bring food to me. I have planted apples, pears, cherries, peaches, and plums. The apples and pears have done the best. The plums keep getting black knot fungus so I am getting rid of them and I am going to replace them with asian persimmons this fall. My cherries keep dying. I have one that looks like it will make it. My neighbor has some close by to cross pollinate with. I share the fruit with the deer and the other creatures. The only problem is they eat it all before its even close to being ripe and I barely get any but if it fattens them up and keeps them in the area then I can't really complain too much. [/QUOTE]
