Lead, I remember when he mailed that tree to you and how he wrapped that tree up to ship it to you. I was fairly new to your channel at that time. You were so excited to get that tree from him. I hope he is okay and I completely understand the emotion, especially if he is not. You will always have a part of your friend through this tree. Bless you! I think the heat killed my persimmon tree this summer cause she ain't got no signs of green and is dry and brittle. If so, I'll just get another one. Peace and Blessings to you Lead!

Don't think I've ever seen you so emotional old friend. I also hope Claudiu is ok, I'd not realised how long it was since I saw him post a video. Incidentally the Black Sapote is called the Chocolate Pudding fruit because of it's internal appearance when it's ripe, not because of it's taste which is what some people are expecting.... It's great to see you put out a video focusing on just persimmons 👍

The persimmons are everywhere in Japan. Don’t know if they are the same as those chocolate persimmons. Btw: You said it about California. It is like a whole mother country. What a wonderful person to go through what must have been so much effort to send Mr Lead that tree. Praying the man who sent the chocolate persimmon tree is protected and well. That persimmon looks like what is in Japan. So healthful and delicious.
