The Coffee Cake Persimmon, also known as ‘Nishimura Wase’, is a variety unlike any other you have tried until now. These trees are extremely hardy, practically free of pests, and resistant to most diseases. They can grow up to 18 feet tall with an equal spread and require full sun. The flesh of the Coffee Cake persimmon fruit changes flavor and color after pollination. The flesh turns from orange to brown and acquires a spicy-sweet flavor and aroma that is unequaled among persimmon varieties. Coffee Cake Persimmon fruit is non-astringent only when pollinated. Requires pollination by Chocolate persimmon and 200 chill hours to properly set fruit.

Zones
USDA Hardiness Zones
A hardiness zone is a geographic area defined as having a certain average annual minimum temperature, a factor relevant to the survival of many plants. In some systems other statistics are included in the calculations. The original and most widely used system, developed by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) as a rough guide for landscaping and gardening, defines 13 zones by long-term average annual extreme minimum temperatures. It has been adapted by and to other countries (such as Canada) in various forms. A plant may be described as "hardy to zone 10": this means that the plant can withstand a minimum temperature of −1.1 to 4.4 °C (30 to 40 °F).
