I'd just say try to get another one soon because it is dioecious (not self fruiting) - http://www.illinoiswildflowers.info/trees/plants/persimmon.h... Under Faunal Associations there, it lists quite a few bugs to choose from.
I have one about 8 years old and 20 feet tall about, it is real nice so far. I have another little one that I grew from a seed 2 years ago, I need to get it planted sometime soon, so I'll have fruit! lol
But this 6 year old one has great Fall color, almost an iridescent look in October. Here's a photo that I made a while back to show before and after of it. -


edited to fix the link, it didn't include .htm, operator error.. : )
