So, until my tree starts producing, where can I buy some fuyu persimmons in the Princeton area? I will travel, if necessary. Last year, there were some "sharon fruits" at some stores -- those are the persimmons grown in Israel. They weren't bad, but they were a bit beaten up after the long trip from Israel, so they were soft in parts, mealy in other parts, and not quite the same as eating a fresh, crisp, sweet fuyu persimmon. Please help... I'm getting the DTs due to this persimmon deprivation...

Perhaps they could even order them for you. http://www.deliciousorchardsnj.com Tue Oct 06 06:46:23 -0700 2009 5082087 211326 MarlboroMan 2 5082340 to second this, i was just there on sunday and saw persimmons.

They were 5 for $3, which is not too bad of a price. They tasted pretty good, though they were picked from the tree a bit earlier than I'd like. Still, I'd take these over nothing, that's for sure.
