CW: Persimmon tree recommendations
I want to plant a persimmon tree in my small backyard and would like variety recommendations.
I'm in central North Carolina, Zone 7b, Trewartha code Cfhl. Last winter it got down to 11 deg F (-12 C).
The tree would need to be self-fertile ; prefer non-astringent.

CW: Why I'm not planting winter squash
Last year I got next to nothing from my 3 delicata & 3 kabocha plants - besides a massive amount of greens for the compost pile. Why? Squash vine borer. Injecting the vines w/ Bt did not work as they infested solid parts of the stem base.
