When you say rooted trees you're smean induced roots? The Rosseyanka
trees I have from Paula Pijut's in-vitro propagation would tend the back
that up. My experience is that grafted Rosseyanka, the same as Morris
Burton, do take longer to come into bearing after grafting than most
other persimmon varieties. Also my in-vitro Rosseyanka seem to be less
vigorous, but I can't say for sure because the timer or two when we had
a night of -10° and lower there was considerable winter freeze damage.
