Persimmon are fruiting trees that thrive on organic manures (compost, blood and bone, chicken manure, seaweed, comfrey leaves, peastraw, etc). Depending on the age of the tree, apply a good couple or three handfuls of blood and bone, then much well with a good quality compost. Do this in early spring, early summer, and late summer.

JUST TO add like all fruiting trees, potash isessentialfor the development of flowers and fruit. Additional "K"can be added as sulphate of potash applied late winter , spring or summer .Potash influences fruitcolour and flavour, increases frost tolerance of plants. I use nitrophoska and they grow like stink on it nitrophoska is a high analysis compound fertilizer with a plethora of trace elementsuse it and dont look back
