Well, where'd you read that?
I'm no expert on the kaki persimmons, but my understand was that Fuyu will set seedless fruit without the need for a pollenizer; Hachiya, I don't know.
'Chocolate' is one that a number of folks plant as a pollenizer, as it produces a large number of male blossoms. If you really need one, it might be the one to try.
Check out the Persimmon Fruit Facts page at the CRFG website

They don't need a pollinizer. If you get one, every fruit on all your trees will be full of seeds. I had one branch of chocolate and hundreds of fruits were seedy. After I cut the branch off, all fruits were seedless.

I planted Fuyu about 3 years ago. It had only one blossom and set fruit last year, which fell off.

I just checked a few minutes ago and it has about 20 tiny fruit on it. Still early but hope this year may see better performance.

My understanding is that it is self-fruitful, but does take awhile to get going.

Thanks for all replies. FF

The Matsumoto Wase WILL ALWAYS REMAIN SEEDLESS even if you have a million persimmon trees next to it that are shedding pollens during the entire blooming period of Matsumoto Wase. At least my cultivar is such. It also bears mature edible persimmon fruits as early as mid-August.

You would be able to enjoy the wonderful tastes of fruits that have seeds in them.

Chocolate and Coffee Cake persimmons would be such wonderful tasting persimmons in your palate when they are cross pollinated and are seeded. The astringency is reduced or minimized when cross pollinated. These persimmon types are the PVNA (Pollination Variant Non-Astringent) group. If you can't detect these differences, sponge would have tasted the same, so you really would be better off with seedless sponges too, LOL, just kidding.
