Giombo Persimmon Tree

Buy Giombo Persimmon Trees for sale at Advanced Nursery Growers in DeFuniak Springs, Florida. Giombo Persimmon, botanically known as Diospyros kaki, is a Japanese persimmon variety known for its large fruit, excellent sweetness, and rich jelly-like texture when fully ripe.

Giombo is an astringent persimmon, which means the fruit should be allowed to fully soften before eating. Once ripe, the fruit becomes sweet, juicy, and smooth, with a rich flavor that makes it a favorite among persimmon lovers. This is not a firm-eating persimmon like Fuyu or Jiro. Giombo should be eaten soft, when the astringency has disappeared and the fruit has developed its best flavor.

The fruit is larger than Saijo and has beautiful light orange to translucent orange flesh when fully ripe. Giombo is often appreciated by customers who enjoy old-fashioned, high-flavor persimmons for fresh eating, baking, drying, preserves, desserts, and fall recipes.

Giombo Persimmon Trees are a good choice for home orchards, edible landscapes, backyard fruit plantings, small farms, and Southern gardens. The tree is productive with proper care and adds beauty to the landscape with green foliage during the growing season and attractive orange fruit in the fall.
