Grown for its beauty and fruits, persimmon is a high-rise tree in Hue gardens. Despite not having high economic value, ancient persimmon trees carry spiritual and cultural value and are closely linked to the lives of many traditional families in the Huong Ngu region.

After a period of mass destruction due to poor quality, now, persimmon gardens are being restored in A Luoi (a mountainous district located to the southwest and 70km from Hue city) in the direction of breeding valuable varieties. The locality is implementing improved grafting of acrid persimmon trees to popular persimmons in order to develop plants with high economic potential.
