D virginiana
Ruby has a very large fruit for an American persimmon. Ripening here from August to November with most of it's fruit ripening later than Weber, Yates and Meader. Late enough that Yates and Weber are done. Leaves resist spotting in the fall. The prettiest ornamental persimmon in our orchard. Self-fertile. Space 14' circle. Zones 5-8.
