Abstract

The persimmon tree of the present invention is characterized by producing a large highly colored fruit. The new variety most closely resembles the ‘Rojo Brillante’ persimmon tree, but it is distinguished in a number of respects including that ‘Nuevo Rojo Brillante’ retains a higher cheek firmness after astringency removal than ‘Rojo Brillante.’ Also, the color after astringency removal of ‘Nuevo Rojo Brillante’ is more yellow-orange than that of ‘Rojo Brillante.’ ‘Nuevo Rojo Brillante’ is a pollination-variant astringent cultivar (PVA).
