Crop Detail Persimmons, called ‘Japani phul’ in Urdu and ‘Diospyros kaki’ in botanical terms, can be cultivated in sub-tropical to cool temperate zones and are native to both North and South America, Southern Europe, Asia and Australia. The trees are extremely beautiful when full of developing or mature fruit, they are spectacular during the autumn months when the large leaves turn dazzling shades of yellow, orange and a deep, blazing red. A mature tree can reach a height of 15-40 ft depending on the variety and on growing conditions and is an awesome sight to see. |
