Omg Marge, I haven't heard mention of a persimmon tree in many years. I grew up in South Carolina, and my grandmother used to have a persimmon tree on her property. My sister loved them. I couldn' t get past the bitterness. There was also a fig bush on her property. A fig is a big surprise when it is freshly picked. It tastes like a slimy Kiwi. My favorite thing there were Muscadines and Scuffydines. For those of you who aren't familiar with them--they are from the grape family and are delicious.
