That is interesting if he found it in dollywood and it was a grafyed claypool variety. We need to update this thread and let @KYnuttrees Cliff know and many other persimmon experts so they update their descriptions. I could see how that could happen.
Dollywood=D128- This Persimmon tree was named by the Late Jerry Lehman while on a trip to visit Bill Owens in Dollywood Tenn. It has a most interesting growth habit (while producing large flavorful persimmon fruit of about 2.5 inches wide) it is a spreading tree while instead of growing upward it tends to spread outward from the trunk making a large canopy with drooping branches to include this growth habit with heavy production it is well worthy of having in the orchard. Limited numbers on hand.
