Abstract: Persimmon is a rare fruit plant in Indonesia. Its growth and development are very interesting how the plants multiply were not clearly understood. This study aimed to determine the vegetative (root shoots) propagation and growth of persimmon. The method used a purposive sampling method with surveys to various regions in Central Java and East Java. The persimmon breeding was conducted at Greenhouse of the Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Sebelas Maret.
