  • Persimmon 'Pendula' - a variety of hurmi-kaki, also known as Japanese persimmon, characterized by its distinctive and decorative overhanging shape.
  • It brings an exceptional aesthetic element to gardens with its characteristic overhanging growth. This tree is characterized by cascading branches with broad, glossy, rich green leaves, creating a beautiful and picturesque shape.
  • The leaves have attractive autumn colors in shades of orange, red, and yellow.
  • The Japanese persimmon 'Pendula' has beautiful flowers and fruits. The yellow-white flowers appear in April to May and create an elegant contrast with the dark leaves. They herald the subsequent development of the fruit.
  • The fruit, known as persimmons, are orange, fleshy, sweet, and egg-shaped. The fruit hangs on the tree until late fall, bringing tones of vivid, vibrant color. They are a popular delicacy in many culinary cultures. They originate from China and Japan, where they have been cultivated for a long time.
  • This variety is usually smaller in size, making it suitable for smaller gardens or as a decorative element in outdoor spaces. It is valued not only for its fruit, but also for its attractive and unusual shape.

  • Cultivation: Prefers sunny to semi-shaded locations. Thorough exposure to sunlight will help fruit development and promote healthy tree growth. The plant prefers well-drained soils with a neutral to slightly acidic pH. Soil rich in organic matter is suitable. 
  • Japanese persimmons are generally tolerant of various soil types, but avoid overly heavy or waterlogged conditions. 
  • Keep the soil evenly moist, especially during dry periods. It is important that the plant is not exposed to waterlogging, which could cause root problems. 
  • Regular fertilization during the growing season will help promote healthy plant development. Use a fertilizer suitable for fruit trees. Summer pruning will help maintain the desired shape and remove diseased or dead branches. Since 'Pendula' has an overhanging growth habit, it is advisable to ensure that the branches are properly shaped. In colder areas, provide adequate winter protection. Cover the tree's roots with mulch to minimize temperature extremes.
