According to historical records, our ancestors ate persimmons more than 3000 years ago. Because it has saved several generations, persimmon also enjoys the reputation of "woody crops" and "hardcore crops".
Compared with other fruit trees, the average life span of persimmon trees is basically above 100 years.
