Zone 5 Persimmon

[PAGUY]

Can I have success with Persimmons in zone 5? If so can anyone recommend where to buy hardy northern persimmons?

The following link might answer most of your questions. It has a range map from the US Forest Service, lists a few nurseries and has a lot of basic information.

PS: A very high percentage of selected American Persimmon cultivars come from its northern range, and are the 90 chromosome varieties.
