They are considered quite a delicacy here in the US and are quite expensive. They do need to be eaten at just the right moment. Would love to see my cachi tree in La Pieve di Monti di Villa right now. Thanks for your wonderful photos. Really helps with the nostalgic feelings of wanting to be there.
Put some very ripe cachi with a tin I amount of sugar and lemon juice through the blender and serve this on top of vanilla or pan a cotta gelatto. Delicious!
I have wondered about these fruits while here and thought they could not be eaten as people leave them on the trees. But now I know. They look great with a splash of colour in the otherwise colourless surroundings in winter.
Are they what we call Persimmons – I know they are not nice if they aren’t perfectly ripe, but they are lovely when they are. They do make a lovely Christmas picture.
yes I like looking at the cachi but I don’t like eating them!
They taste great if you get them at just the right moment
They make the perfect Christmas tree !
With free decorations
What a beautiful photographs, trees naturally got ornaments. I loved them all dear Debra, Thank you, love, nia

I like them, but they have to be just right. Grom does a great cachi gelato.

That sounds delicious!
That sounds very delicious.
Gorgeous pictures! But now you’ve got me curious as to what they taste like. 🙂
They are very sweet, the flavour is difficult to describe. You may know them as persimmons

You can eat them, but they look great on the trees and the birds love them. I have just planted one at Casa Debbio.

Yes, they are persimmons. We don’t see them often in Brisbane.
They look just like orange balls on the bare branches….and very nice fruit as well when you get them at the right time.
