The Izu Persimmon Tree is an outstanding dwarf, non-astringent Asian persimmon cultivar prized for its early ripening, excellent fruit quality, and compact growth habit. Reaching just 8–10 feet tall, Izu is ideal for small yards, backyard orchards, high-density plantings, and commercial persimmon production where space efficiency and productivity matter. Izu produces medium-sized, bright orange persimmons with a sweet, mild flavor that can be eaten fresh and firm with no astringency. Ripening early in September, this early-season persimmon tree is one of the first high-quality persimmons to mature, making it highly valuable for both fresh markets and home growers. The tree bears female flowers only, resulting in few seeds and excellent eating quality. Known for its strong disease resistance and cold hardiness to 0°F, the Izu Persimmon performs reliably across a wide range of climates. With proper planting and care, new trees can begin producing fruit in just 2–3 years, offering fast returns and dependable harvests. Its manageable size, early production, and consistent performance make it a top-tier commercial persimmon cultivar as well as a favorite for residential plantings. For growers seeking a compact, cold-hardy, non-astringent persimmon tree with early ripening and market-ready fruit, the Izu Persimmon Tree delivers exceptional value—a Chestnut Hill selection built for efficiency, flavor, and long-term success.
