Okay, now that persimmon looks more like the wild one around here.
Well, the leaves and twigs look exactly like it
and with the persimmons more closely set.
But still ours don't get anything like that bushy.
Maybe they prune them to grow like that.
Or is the growth habit just more "shrubby?"
Also, our wild persimmons get very dark almost opaque
burnt orange skin tone
with a whitish sugary powdery stuff on the surface ...
and all crinkled in the skin when they are dead ripe after a frost.
