The name, \u003cem\u003eDiospyros\u003c\/em\u003e, comes from Greek words referring to fruit of the gods. These trees are usually dioecious so both fruit-bearing and pollen-bearing plants are needed to produce fruit. Bees are the primary pollinators. A wide assortment of wildlife feeds on the fruits. The larvae of luna, regal and other moths use persimmons as host plants. Deer will browse twigs and leaves within reach.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SCNPS Upstate","offers":[{"title":"1g Tree","offer_id":46669232767263,"sku":"C-65","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0754\/9501\/4687\/files\/Diospyrusvirginiana.jpg?v=1686848168","url":"https:\/\/shopupstate.scnps.org\/products\/5toqj3ns3nv3a4co76w345wc","provider":"SCNPS Upstate","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
