I’ve been watching for months how to prune trees and no body explains it like you. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Lord willing I plan on planting trees in the raised bed and keep them small I’ll keep learning until then😂❤
Tom I love your vids and have been watching them for a while now. I'm a transplant from California that now lives in the Pacific Northwest and would love to hear ANY recommendations that you can make for this kind of climate. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
I always look forward to your vids, only they are too few and far between. I want to plant everything you show but here in Maine (zone 5/4)I am limited. I am especially interested in those pomegranates, actually everything you showed. What of what you showed is possible to grow in Maine? Thanks.
For those trying to grow figs in extreme winter conditions with many days below freezing winter protection is key. Keeping the tree to a manageable size and creating an insulating area to protect the tree.
When you were talking about the Hachiya Persimmon and if you want to pick it early, I was saying to myself.... say freeze it, freeze it and you nailed it. Not too many people know that little trick!
Nice, I would have liked some explanation in the first segment of exactly why rogue bloom is a fireblight hazard. What is the mechanism of this threat of disease spread? Improved audio quality! Tom, time to upgrade the camera, even my cellphone does high definition, 360p is frustrating, would love to see your beautiful fruits and what you are doing in greater detail with 720p, 1080i, or at least 480p! we are feasting right now on our Izu persimmons, Kelly even made a batch of sorbet - YUM!

All in one Fuyu is the most popular crunchy eating variety. Chocolate and Coffeecake are both excellent also, but best planted together for better pollination.
There are lots of tricks, like reflective tape and such, none work very well. It gets better after the tree is older and produces more fruit. Don’t remove bird pecked fruit from your tree, or they’ll just peck another. Jays used to decimate my Pluot, then it got more productive and the fruit they ate didn’t matter much. Cherries and other early ripening varieties can be hardest hit by birds, more fruit seems the only answer.
Lang is partly self-fruitful. You will get bigger crops with pollination. You might try mail order for a different variety. www.davewilson.com/home-gardens/where-to-buy/retail-nurseries-mail-order

Hi tom I have been trying to grow persimmon from last 4 yrs. Till now i have tried 4 bare rooted trees( jiro and fuyu varities) one every year. But all of them died. They were all planted on different locations. Issue is my first persimmon i planted showed only 2 inch of growth after it broke dormancy. This continued for 2 yrs and in 3rd year it died. And other 3 i planted last yr never broke dormancy till mid summer but were alive as bark was green underneath. But they also now dead as we heading for winter in sydney AUSTRALIA. I planted them in ful sun with 11 hrs or direct sunlight in summer. We do have temps for 40+ in summer. What i might be doing wrong. All stone fruits , citrus and apples are doing great..except persimmon (and cherry) I m very keen in growing this again. Any tips would be helpful Do u think i shall plant it in PART SHADE? PLEASE HELP Thanks sandy
My first guess would be over watering. If you're watering them more than once a week they will not thrive. You should be watering about every 10 to 14 days in the summer, letting the first few inches of topsoil dry between irrigations.
the best apples are Ranet Semerenko, these are apples that you will not know the taste of real apples without trying. Alas, these apples are not available in America. in the market in Poland and Ukraine, these apples are about 2 times more expensive than any other varieties

Fireblight can be transmitted by bee activity.. It spreads easier in warm weather also.
great video as usual Tom!
I love your videos and your fruits selection, to bad we can't order directly from you for our home garden. I've seen so many fruit trees that wanted.
Enjoyable video! Great info. Looking forward to the next video!
this got me so hype. can't wait to buy some of these trees.

Thank you

Why are the persimmon trees so tall u didn't prune them eye level?
They do fine as long as you plant them in the hottest, driest part of you yard. A full sun area with good drainage.
Hey Dave, what trees do you recommend for the Pacific Northwest, and West Coast British Columbia?
great videos Tom, i hope to plant some trees soon
CAN YOU PLEASE POST ANY TRIMMING TIPS ON LEE JUJUBE TREE.DO I KEEP TREE SHORT OR TALL.
Look for signs of physical stress.. too much water, heat or nitrogen. A think layer of mulch will help prevent many stress issues.
I have been research why my fuyu persimmon tree lose its fruits batch by batch from June to Sept? I really need some good tips on this! Thanks!
What rootstock is it on? Some dwarfing apple roots need staking.
With coffee cake persimmon, if you have one that's non-pollinated fruit, does the astringency remain even if you let it ripen to wrinkled state?
I believe so, if you freeze and then thaw them they will lose astringency also.
I would suspect that disease transmission is via pollen, be it in the air, or on a pollenating bug?
Jujubes should work down to about five degrees or close to zero when established.
thank you for your knowledge
How cold tolerant are jujubes? Albuquerque?
Which veriety of persimmon is most sweetest and crunchy ?
All in one Fuyu is the most popular crunchy eating variety. Chocolate and Coffeecake are both excellent also, but best planted together for better pollination.
That is correct.
How do you keep the birds eating the fruits???
There are lots of tricks, like reflective tape and such, none work very well. It gets better after the tree is older and produces more fruit.

In my area all i can find to buy is LANG JUJUBE so that means the tree wont bear fruit? if i cant find a LI?
Lang is partly self-fruitful. You will get bigger crops with pollination. You might try mail order for a different variety. www.davewilson.com/home-gardens/where-to-buy/retail-nurseries-mail-order
Wow never heard of Jujubes
Looks so yummy though
