Fuyu persimmons are a good source of vitamins A and C, as well as dietary fiber and potassium. They are also low in calories. Persimmons can be eaten fresh, dried, or cooked. They are often used in desserts, such as pies, cakes, and puddings. Persimmons can also be added to salads, stir-fries, and other savory dishes.

To choose the best Fuyu persimmons, look for fruits that are firm and bright in color. Avoid persimmons that are soft or have blemishes. Fuyu persimmons are ripe when they yield slightly to pressure when pressed gently.

Fuyu persimmons can be stored at room temperature for a few days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week. To ripen persimmons, place them in a paper bag with an apple or banana. The ethylene gas released by the apple or banana will help the persimmons ripen.

Here are some tips for enjoying Fuyu Japanese persimmons:

  • Eat fresh persimmons like an apple or pear.
  • Slice persimmons and add them to salads or yogurt parfaits.
  • Use persimmons in smoothies and juices.
  • Bake persimmons into muffins, pies, and cakes.
  • Add persimmons to stir-fries and curries.
  • Dry persimmons into chewy fruit leather.

Note: The plant is shipped in its pot, firmly secured with several layers of clear tape, thereby avoiding any shuffling and moving during transit. The plant reaches you with minimal damage- very safe and secure. We have been shipping plants like this for several years (plant are sometimes shipped in smaller pots for safety and ease of shipping). Most plants go dormant in fall and winter and will lose most of their leaves - looking dead and dry - very normal. They will flush out in spring.

We cannot send ship some plants and some sizes to California due to restrictions placed by department of agriculture.

Note
Please note that the plant will be shipped in its pot, securely fastened with multiple layers of clear tape to prevent any shifting or damage during transit. This ensures that the plant arrives to you with minimal damage, safely and securely. We have been employing this method for shipping plants for several years, occasionally using smaller pots for added safety and convenience during transit. It's important to understand that many plants enter a dormant state during the fall and winter months, resulting in the loss of most leaves and appearing dry or lifeless. This is a natural process, and come springtime, they will begin to regrow and thrive once again. Please be aware that due to regulations set by the Department of Agriculture, there are certain plants and sizes that we are unable to ship to California. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
