I really do not know, but I lived in Harrisburg, Pa and had one that produced a lot of persimmons but I made a simple wooden and plastic covering made to protect it. Now I live in Tenn and they produced a limited number of persimmons. I would think that if you helped it out and did some covering to protect it, that might work. It is worth a try as we love to eat ours. C Vesper vesp5300@gmail.com

I live in the high desert (4000 ft.) and I planted in the early summer. Nurseries who sell these or any plants should let customers know when to plant certain plants. If I still lived in Sacramento, Ca. I would have planted this in the spring. Good luck...

I'm not really sure. However, the ones I planted a month ago, are just beginning to grow really well. I guess it must be because the weather is a little cooler and wetter. So, based on this, I think planting it now in Boston would be good. The vines I got were on two year old root stock, so they are pretty hardy, even though the plants were small. We're in Delaware, so our weather is a little warmer than Boston. Fall is always a good time to plant, though you might have to protect the young vines over the winter. Good luck!

Janet: I purchased this tree earlier in the year and planted it in large pot in the yard. It's doing well but I know it will take a couple of years to bear fruit. You should feel confident in placing it in a pot. Laura

I think you will find that it will thrive in your area. The largest vine I ever saw was at the corner of South St. & Duvall in Key West. It was very healthy and quite fragrant in April and May. Someone removed it several years ago unfortunately. I plan to plant several in Miami.

About 8to10 feet tall.Be careful in June July August. Check for good root system. Every other day.Add nitrogen twice a year. The first year develop a good root system.don't cut the suckers they will feed the trunk.Next year you start shaping the tree. God Luck

The plant i got is about 5 ft tall. I believe the plant can grow as tall as 8 ft. But the taller it gets, the harder to move it around (in NJ, it needs to be in house during the winter). Hope this piece information helps.

Go ahead and plant it. You are probably warm enough for it to survive the winter. If there is going to be a cold snap I would cover it. We live in RI and bring it in during the winter.

Yes, I believe so. This is really well-made tree. It also lays flat against the wall. I would recommend it.

I'm sorry I wish that I could answer your question. I see that this zip is for New York. I would think that since it is tropical, it may not work for you. I would try Emerald Goddess Gardens where I ordered from. I must say this plant has growed pretty rapidly. I've only had a couple of blooms. I planted mine in a pot so that I can bring in during the winter. I want to think I read somewhere it wasn't very cold hardy and thats why I planted in a pot. I'm so sorry I couldn't be more help. Good Luck!!

HI It is not that big, but you could brace it. Its built really well but the edges are detailed with the flowers (small) you would probably lose a few. I put mine under a large shade tree and it looks really nice. Can you put a metal ring on the outside and plaster it or a redwood ring will would be soft enough not to break the base and use white oak around that its strong enough? I hope I helped alittle.

Yes, you can plant it in your yard if the conditions are good. Do your research. My great grandma Leta's tree was well established in San Diego, CA and I remember avocados everywhere. As in the hundreds. Good luck!

All bonsai do better outdoors. You can keep it inside for a day at max, if you wish to display it. Don't place it near vents. Anyway, I'd advise against getting this particular tree. I recommend juniper.

Hi Maay, I really like my bonsai. I live in a highrise apt in downtown Detroit. I have it inside in front of a window where it gets a good amount of sun during the day and of course non at night. It does demand a lot of water so about every 3 days I put it in my bathtub and turn the shower on for about 3-5min.I usually turn the plant when I put it back on the ledge, I don't know if it's necessary though. It looks like it's doing great! It blooms and it's even growing.

I live in mm, so we have mild winters and hot summers, perfect for leaving this tree outside, as it mimicks its natural invironment.

Hi,The tree is a dwarf and I do not know how big it will get. It was a gift for my Dad and he thought it was dead but looks like new growth this season and flowers.

I live in Tampa, FL and I'm thinking of planting this around the pool decking. Has anyone had any trouble with the heat in Tampa? It will be in full sun.
