"A-33" American Persimmon Tree
The "A-33" American Persimmon is a highly prized early-ripening masterpiece bred by the legendary James Claypool. Originating from an elite cross of Garretson and Golden Supreme, this variety is celebrated for yielding heavy, consistent crops of awesome yellow-orange fruits that are completely seedless when grown without a male pollinator. When soft and ripe, it delivers a delectably sweet, honeyed flavor with an exceptional, firm yet melting texture that sets it apart from wild native varieties.
Quick Growing Tips
Sunlight: Prefers a minimum of 8 hours of direct, full sun daily to support rapid fruit growth and maximize concentrated sugar density.
Climate & Hardiness: An exceptional option for northern fruit growers, boasting incredible winter hardiness down to USDA Zone 4 (-25°F) with highly reliable wood survival.
Pollination & Yield: It is functionally self-fertile, allowing it to produce abundant, high-quality crops entirely on its own.
Harvesting Window: Known as an extra-early ripening cultivar, its fruits drop cleanly from the branch starting in early to mid-September, making it ideal for short-summer regions.
