The Last Persimmon of the Season





This the last persimmon of the 2020 crop.   It's sitting on the counter, very lonely looking.




In the late summer early fall, the persimmon trees are green and beautiful, needs support sticks so that the branches would not break.




Hanging on the branches are the green fruits.   




As summer turned to fall, fall turned to winter, the green fruits red, ready to eat.
These are the Fuyu.




Hachiya was also in abundant supply.   




After the harvest in December and pruning in January, these are the persimmon trees.  The one in the front is the Hachiya and the one on the left and several farther back are the Fuyu.    It'll be 8 to 9 months from now to see the pretty red fruits again.   Goodbye delicious persimmons, looking forward to the 2021 crop.
