dogdoc Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 Re: Fertilizing Persimmons persimmon trees are either male or female and you need one of each to produce fruit. Either way fertilization will only help make a plumper/juicier fruit. I don't really think it will help it fruit. todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 Re: Fertilizing Persimmons Yep, Todd is right here. Got a persimmon out in our front yard that flowers every year but never produces fruit. Only other one I know of on our property is about 300 yards away. Guess they are either both the same sex, or it is too far for them to polinate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted June 19, 2006 Report Share Posted June 19, 2006 Re: Fertilizing Persimmons Yep, most fruit trees need pollinators. If you already see fruit, fertilizing will probably help the fruit grow bigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
