Persimmons Growin Northwest of Niles Michigan
Henry Ridenour on his farm near Niles Michigan harvested persimmons from a 40 year old tree planted by his father. The tree, unusually large with walnut like bark and tropical foliage, survived last February’s blizzard and ripens after a hard freeze, yielding delicious fruit in late season.
