About Tom Alonzo
Expertise
I have been growing plants from seeds for at least 20 years. I have grown literally hundreds of different kinds of vegetables, trees, shrubs, annuals, perennials, tropicals, some cacti, water plants, iris, rose, lilies, cannas, etc. I enjoy starting from seed.

Experience
I've been growing my own seeds for 20 years with indoor propagation equipment I built myself. I am also an Allexperts volunteer on the perennial forum. I have completed the Master Gardener course through the Kansas State University Extension. I have experience with a wide variety of seeds and I have also read through Norm Deno's books on seed germination.

Seeding and Propagation - Persimmon Tree - fruit not tasty


Expert: Tom Alonzo - 11/5/2009

Question
I have a 2 year old Fuyu Persimmon tree.  It now has many red fruits but they all taste "cotton mouth"ish.  Why?  What can I do to make the fruits come out sweet?

Answer
Hi Linda,
Thanx for your question.  Your question is a bit outside my expertise.  I'm not a fruit tree expert.  However, I can refer you to an expert here on the site, Nick McCann, who is knowledgeable about Fruit Trees.  You can access Nick by going back to Home/Garden, Click on Gardening and then Click on Fruit.  I hope this helps.
Tom
