Persimmon cultivars are classified in relation to fruit astringency at harvest: Pollination
The persimmon collection at the Center contains various cultivars that are not widely available and are sought after by avid fans of this fruit.
Many thanks to the staff, CA Rare Fruit Growers, OC Chapter; UCCE Master Food Preservers and Master Gardener volunteers who helped with the slicing, setup, facilitating, and clean up. Very special acknowledgment to Isabel Barkman and the volunteers who assist with our orchards year round for their hard work pruning, harvesting, labeling, and preparing the persimmons for the event.
