Texas Persimmon is highly drought-tolerant once established, requiring minimal supplemental watering. Young trees, however, benefit from regular, deep watering during their first year, especially in dry periods, to encourage a strong root system. Ensure the soil drains well to prevent root rot.

Pruning is typically done to shape the tree, remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches, and to maintain a desired size or form. It can be trained as a single-trunk tree or a multi-stemmed shrub. The best time for pruning is in late winter or early spring before new growth begins, allowing the plant to heal quickly. Avoid heavy pruning during the growing season.

Propagation is primarily achieved through seeds, which require a period of cold stratification to break dormancy. Collect ripe fruit, clean the seeds thoroughly, and store them in moist sand or peat in a refrigerator for several months before planting. Sow seeds in well-drained soil in spring. Cuttings are generally difficult to root successfully, making seed propagation the most reliable method for this species.

Texas Persimmon is typically grown in the ground as a landscape tree or shrub and is not commonly kept in pots long-term due to its size and root system. If started in a container, it will eventually need to be transplanted into the ground once it outgrows its pot. For temporary container growth, repotting into a larger container with fresh, well-draining soil may be necessary every 2-3 years to accommodate root growth.
