I just went to Nani Mau Gardens today and found on the ground several flattened oval bright red fruits with four sepal/petals on the top, and the skin was like velvet...very furry. Is this a persimmon? A fuyu persimmon? I looked it up on google and the only photos looked like the skin was smooth, but this fruit is totally velvety. It is such a gorgeous fruit! Not sure if it's edible, but for some reason I think it's a persimmon? Loved Nani Mau Gardens, but sure wish they had more of their plants/trees labeled!!!! They had a zillion citrus trees, but no idea what types/species they are... Kama'aina rates for entry were only $7.00 a person....well worth the visit.
