Princess Persimmon (Roya Kaki) 'Toyooka Akane'

Princess Persimmon (Roya Kaki) has gained popularity in the art of bonsai due to its dense growth habit, small, rhomboid foliage, and showy red-orange and brown-speckled fruit. It is important to note that this variety will not produce flowers until it matures, which can take 7-10 years depending on your climate zone. Only female plants will bear fruit, so it is recommended to have a companion male plant for optimal fruit development. Alternatively, while blooming, the flowers can be treated with diluted gibberellic acid to produce smaller fruits without seeds.
