*Persimmon Identification Correction*
I referred to one of the persimmon types as 'American Persimmon (Diospyros virginiana)' The persimmon type we own is Eureka Persimmon, not American Persimmon.

**Persimmon Identification Correction** I referred to one of the Persimmon varieties as being an American Persimmon. It's, in fact, a Eureka Persimmon, a flat-bottom, astringent, heavy-bearing variety. As of 2020, we do own a Native/American/Common Persimmon, but it's not featured in this video. Sorry about the mixup.

I lived in Japan for many years and love persimmons. The Japanese do a much better job of celebrating and enjoying fruits as they come into season. Just discovered your channel, love your fruit enthusiasm!
-
The best video on Persimmon that I’ve come across. Thank you for packing in so much information.
-
I used to live in Taiwan and had my first ever persimmon there! It was definitely the fuyu variety, and it became my favorite fruit instantly. Thanks for making such a detailed video on persimmons, I had no idea there were any varieties, let alone how different some of them seem!
-
I planted 2, japanese (thats all i got) a while back. Now i have over 10 trees, and gallons of little seedy fruits that taste amazing. Made my first ever persimmon vinegar! Yeehaw !
-
Well that was packed full of information! I have never had a persimmon yet, but feel a certain confidence after the education you've given me. Thanks!
-
We Live in South Korea and persimmons are my wife's FAVORITE fruit and she eats a LOT of them. Thank you for this video as I learned a lot about the fruit here. We tried to grow one in central Wisconsin but it died the second winter. Sad. Also, I made a persimmon cake which is a heavy cake and very sweet!
-
I just found your channel and think you're great! Thanks for the helpful fun info and sharing your experience!
-
saw some in the store the other day and asked my mom about them but it had been so long she couldn't recall the flavor or prep needs. So thank you for this video i will definitely have to try one, love trying new flavors:)
-
I have just watched a few videos on persimmons and I'm so glad I let the auto-play do it's thing because I heard you speaking and you gave the BEST descriptions of any one else I heard. I love all the details you give and the corrections in the comments. New sub and thank you so much!!
-
Thanks dear, this is the most exhaustive and concise video on any fruit I've ever seen, I love persimmons
-
I bought a house with a Hachiya Tree this year ,first time I have ever tasted one in my life and Im hooked thanks for this video very informative
-
Absolutely my favorite fruit. The Hachiya is very good. I tried eating the wild Maryland persimmons, but never could because of the tannin content.The fragrant wild persimmons hanging by the hundreds from the boughs in the autumn, is something I'll never forget.
-
I live on Ohio and I have one growing in my field randomly. So I've become very curious of them since I've never seen them b4. So glad to learn more about them. Great video
-
Thank you; I learned so much. Love your video❤
-
I just tried one for the first time! It was a fuyu and had a texture like an apple, but much sweeter than any apple I've ever had. Very much like honey. I really enjoyed ^^ So I had to find a video to learn more about them. Thank you for educating us! Great video :) I hope to try more varieties of this fruit.
-
Such an informative video! Glad I came across your channel. I just purchased my first Hachiya persimmon. It feels heavy in hand and I can't wait for it to ripen. Looking forward to trying this fruit.
-
Great job, with all the information I was looking for!
-
