Persimmon Fuyu - Grafted
This is my second purchase from Rose. I ordered a Fuyu persimmon and a Mexicola avocado. Delivery was prompt, beautifully packaged and on time as per Rose's estimated timeframe. This is how a well organised nursery should run. Prior to ordering from Rose, I made the mistake of ordering trees from Wairere nursery in 2022. They are a large well established nursery in Hamilton. Not only did the delivery take 4 weeks, by the time the trees arrived, half of them were dead or in bad shape. Wairere commissioned a delivery company who "specialises in plants" but of course, they won't make the trip to deliver them to your town until they have accumulated enough clients to make their trip worthwhile. Highly recommend Exotica NZ. You won't be disappointed.
Another wonderful plant from Exotica, as always securely packaged and well grown.
