Frequently Asked Questions

What is the myth about persimmon seeds?

The myth about persimmon seeds says you can predict winter weather by cutting a seed open. Inside, the shape of the kernel is said to tell the forecast—a spoon means heavy snow, a knife means cold winds, and a fork means a mild winter. It’s a fun old tradition many gardeners enjoy each fall.
Why are persimmons not sold in stores?

Persimmons aren’t commonly sold in stores because they bruise easily and have a short shelf life. They’re often grown in smaller quantities and sold locally or online. Many people prefer to grow their own for the freshest, sweetest flavor.
Are persimmon seedlings hard to grow?

Persimmon seedlings are easy to grow and adapt well to many soil types. They thrive in full sun and need minimal care once established. With patience and good conditions, they reward you with beautiful foliage and delicious fruit each year.

Red Maple

I had doubts when I first opened the box. Packaged well. After planting them after two weeks they came to life and are flourishing quite well. They are very healthy and now branching out vividly. Thank you!

Giant Chicory!

I purchased a selection of blue plants. I planted the bare roots in a large planter I call the nursery. I wait until they are adapting to their new environment. When they start growing about three inches, I transplant to a larger pot, then to their permanent location in my garden. One grew to four feet. Others are 1- 2 feet! I can see buds sprouting and can’t wait until they bloom. I did have to cut the 4ft one down to 2 ft so it would get fuller.

My favorite spring flower

My absolute favorite spring flower. I’ve bought several over the years. Sometimes I’ve found they might not come up until the second year but most from this nursery come in the next spring.
