Persimmon, (Japanese Persimmon)

Height: 160/170

ay-delicious is a persimmon (Diospyros kaki), ripe on the branch.

A round fruit, dyed in the colors of flame, catches the eye of customers at major fruit and vegetable markets.

Its homeland is China and Japan. The size of the fruit is the size of a woman's fist. He is wearing a zip, which is removed, to eat the fleshy part underneath. There are pits in the core of the persimmon, which are also removed. Most persimmons, which are sold at the stalls, are plucked raw, to keep longer. They are hard and their shell has not yet acquired the bright orange color, and they look like an unripe pink tomato, tell sellers.
And they advise: in that case, do not give up the fruit, buy it. However, it is good to leave it on the windowsill, to mature.
The most delicious, of course, are paradise apples, ripened on the tree, which have become soft and sweet, while they were on the branch.
For the first time, the countries of the Mediterranean and America tasted the orange fruit already in the 18th century, chroniclers testify.
