I bought what was supposedly a fuyu persimmon at Home Depot. When it
fruited, it was not the flat tomato shaped fuyu, so I first t-budded
ichikeiki jiro on the unknown cultivar on the unknown rootstock (but probably
virginianna) last year and then got other budwood.

I budded several astringant varieties to my saijo tree from edible
landscaping and several non-astringent varieties to my matsumoto wase tree
with unknown rootstock (but probably virginianna)from Treesearch in Houston,
TX.

I've been told that most non-astringants taste the same and that most
astringants taste the same except for honon red. One guy told me he didn't
like the taste of honan red and another said it was his favorite. I'll see
for myself. Most of my friends with persimmon live 1-2 hours away so I'll
probably taste them first on my own tree. I am also grafting my neighbor's
mature tasteless and unsweet "Japanese persimmon"(probably hachiya with acorn
shaped fruit, last time it fruited about 5 bushels or more of fruit) to
several non astringent varieties. The neighbor(2nd owner)doesn't like
persimmons anyway.

I ordered some marginally hardy plants from south of here. (Camellias
- one is a true tea plant, and I hope to harvest some green tea. Is
that close enough?) Unfortunately, because it is warm down there, the
plants are in active growth and have baby spring leaves. It's cold
here. Below freezing now, and the forecast is for it to stay chilly
(but above freezing after tonight) for the foreseeable future.

I put them in a cool part of the basement for the night, but there's no
light down there. What would you recommend after that? Plant soon?
Try to keep inside until it's a bit warmer? The traditional last frost
date is Memorial Day, but a hard frost is unlikely after tonight.

They are not bare-root. They were packed with a small root ball.

Thanks,
Ginda
