It's very easy for me to understand how a couple of persimmon seeds could have been incorporated into a batch of pawpaw seed when you have a nursery operator, like John Gordon - or myself - who's gathering/cleaning/storing both persimmon & pawpaw seeds in large quantities. And, the physical appearance of persimmon & pawpaw seeds is not all that different - granted, most pawpaw seeds are larger and thicker than the typical persimmon seed - but I've seen some large persimmon seeds that were bigger than some small pawpaw seed. If you were planting a large quantity - like the pound or two that mIEKAL was working with, you might not even notice a couple of persimmon seeds as being significantly different.
Pretty unlikely that John Gordon's got A.parviflora growing in Amherst, NY, as it's pretty much a zone 7-8 plant.
