The Chocolate Persimmon is a fascinating and flavorful adventure for the curious gardener. When pollinated, its flesh transforms into a deep, spicy brown with a uniquely rich and c omplex flavor. It‘s more than a fruit; it‘s a conversation piece and a gourmet experience from your own backyard. Requires cross-pollination (e.g., with another astringent variety like ‘Coffeecake‘) to develop its signature non-astringent, brown flesh and full flavor. Produces medium-sized, conical fruit with a beautiful orange-red skin. Pollinated fruit reveals stunning dark brown flesh with a smooth, dense, almost jam-like texture. Flavor is exceptionally sweet, rich, and spicy with strong persimmon notes. A late-ripening variety and an excellent pollenizer for other persimmon trees due to abundant male flowers. Highly ornamental with seasonal leaf color change. Flavor Profile: Flavor: Deep, complex sweetness with hints of spice and a pronounced persimmon essence. Texture: Firm yet smooth and fudgy when properly pollinated and ripe. Best Uses: A gourmet fresh-eating treat, exceptional for baking, or enjoyed as a novel dessert. Show more
