What you’ll receive
-
Quantity: 1 live tree seedling
-
Plant length: Approximately 7–10 inches
-
Shipping format: Dormant bare-root plant, as described by the seller
-
Plant type: Fruit-tree seedling

Planting and care
-
Planting time: Bare-root trees are generally planted during dormancy, when local soil and weather conditions are suitable.
-
Roots: Keep roots from drying out before planting. Follow the seller’s unpacking and planting instructions.
-
Soil: Choose well-draining soil and avoid sites that remain waterlogged.
-
Water: Water thoroughly after planting and maintain appropriate moisture while the tree establishes.
-
Light: Select a suitable outdoor location with ample sunlight for healthy growth and fruit production.
-
Climate: American persimmon is known for cold tolerance, but suitability depends on the exact species, local conditions, and seedling source.
Growth and fruiting
This is a young seedling, not a mature fruiting tree. Trees need time to establish and mature, and fruit production depends on growing conditions, pollination, and whether the tree is capable of setting fruit on its own. Fruit is not guaranteed within a particular timeframe.
Please note
-
This listing is for one live bare-root seedling, approximately 7–10 inches long.
-
The listed measurement is plant length, not pot size or mature height.
-
Dormant plants may arrive without leaves.
-
Confirm the botanical species and any cultivar information before relying on specific fruit characteristics or hardiness claims.
A useful option for gardeners building a home orchard or adding a persimmon tree to a suitable outdoor planting area.
