Prok Persimmon

A fan favorite, Prok is considered one of the best persimmons available on the market today. A self-fertile tree, it bears abundant crops of especially large, honey-sweet persimmons. It bears earlier than other persimmon cultivars and is a good choice for those in the Northern range of persimmons.

Description

Grown by John Gordon of Amherst, NY as a seedling from the Cornell University breeding program, “Prok” is generally considered one of the best quality American persimmons in today’s market. The tree is self-fertile and produces abundant crops of very large 2½-3 inch fruits with exceptional honey-sweet flavor and smooth, custard-like texture when fully ripe. A great choice for those who like to process or cook with persimmon because it is seedless as long as there are no male persimmons nearby to pollinate it. Bears an earlier crop and is a good choice for more Northern range growers.
