This is a good, informative Thread, which I'm glad it's been brought back. It basically consists of infomation about the 2-3 best persimmons for the South Florida area.
After, re-reading this/other Thread(s), again, this is what I come away with:
'South Florida' persimmon is the same thing as 'Hudson' persimmon. It begs the question: is 'Hudson' better overall quality (production, flavor, fruit size ...) than 'Triumph' and 'Winterset?' From what I've read, 'Hudson' requires no chill hours. Is 'Hudson' ('S. Florida') thus indeed a better variety than 'Triumph' and 'Winterset?' This variety is reported to be similar in size to the 'Triumph' persimmon and in harvest season, August to December (according to Pete's Plants). It is also mentioned in Pepe's Plants website that it is "very similar to Triumph but is said to have even less chill requirements and more productive."
'Triumph,' ranks in at second best place. The renowned 'Triumph' is reported to be a small to medium sized fruit, similar in size to the 'Hudson' ('S.Florida') persimmon.
The Triumph does phenomenally well here in South Florida - producing so much fruit that broken branches are not uncommon. I get dozens of fruit each year from a 5 year old, 5 foot tall tree. It's a great persimmon, but not quite as good tasting as the winterset.
'Winterset' ranks in at third best place. It is reported by Jeff (Cookie Monster) to be smaller than 'Triumph' but with an even better taste. The harvest season is reported to be November-December by TT.
Steve Cucura usually recommends the winterset. It's comparable to the saijo in quality (ie, excellent) but bears much more heavily. The fruit are smallish and very sweet (22 degrees brix if I remember correctly). I've seen the winterset fruit in a 3 gallon pot.
As always, different locations/conditions can have an effect on overall fruit quality.
