- I have 3 different varieties of Kaki fruits in the food forest
Fuyu, Nikitiskaya and one I don't remember :) They are all thriving in my garden and have been fruiting every year since I planted them 8 years ago.
The blue beauty in front of the kaki tree is Caryopteris clan, Blåskæg in Danish.
Oh in Norden gibt Kaki und Pinien
Interesting! Does it require more than one tree for pollination?
Hi John - it depends on what vareities you are growing. The varieties I have are selfpollinating, but you can also find varieties that need both male and female trees to produce fruits. www.gardenguides.com/info_8535614_do-persimmons-need-pollinated.html
are those winter asters "real" Asters? Or Chrysanthemum x hortorum (
Hi Martina :) Yes, I agree they are often mixed or presented as the same spieces even at nurseries The white ones (and a lot of purple ones) are "real" asters, I also have some of the very late flowering chrysanthemums - and I love those too !!!
But how do they taste? And what do they look like on the inside? :)
Hi Else, They have their own taste, but something like soft dates but more fruity. In a month or so you can buy a commercial variety in the shops - sharonfruit, kaki or dadelblomme. The variety I grow is a little different and needs to be very soft and almost over-ripe before they are good to eat.
They have no pips aor anything inside, just orange fruit flesh
