    Persimmon Scions

    Just bringing this thread back up. Several members over the past couple years have been very kind in sharing their scions with me for my big persimmon orchard. I’m always looking to add more variety, so if anyone has persimmon scions to share, please reach out!

    Persimmon Scions

    Again this year, I’m looking for persimmon scions to graft. If any of you have any known varieties or unique varieties that you are willing to share scions from, I’d love to make them a part of the orchard my grandfather and I planted. Happy to swap scions if you need something I have or pay for...

    Driveway tree planting

    Well luckily for me, being in Southwest Mississippi near the River, we’ve got tons and tons of magnolias growing everywhere. (They’re perfect for hanging stands in, btw; evergreen cover.) I might plant a couple at the gate to screen the drive.

    Persimmon Graft Results

    I have some leftover scions and about a dozen persimmon seedlings I planted last year in 5 gal rootmakers. Is it too late to graft? Even if I can keep them in a reasonable amount of shade and watered regularly since they are at my house. I know grafting is typically done in the spring, I just...

    Grafting tool

    I got one several years ago, and have only had around 10% success rate using it. I don't use it anymore.

    Persimmon Scions

    I didn’t do much scion collection this year so I have nothing to trade, but I’ll gladly take any persimmon varieties you are willing to share. I need some grafting scions this season. I have plenty of varieties of pears and apples on my farm I can share in the future.

    On the hunt for persimmons

    I have reached out in years past, but again I am looking for anyone who would like to share unique persimmon scions with me. I have an orchard on my farm in Mississippi planted with nothing but native persimmons (around 30 trees) that my grandfather and I planted in 2012. It won't seem like much...
