Check out this loquat tree that's loaded with fruits ready to pick, and learn more on how to grow one yourself.
Today we're talking about a gold nugget loquat tree that I planted in the fall of 2021. This tree is unique and the flavor of the fruit is a mix between peach, plum, and citrus - with the texture of a plum. If you've never tried it before, you're in for a treat!
Here are some of the top reasons I love this tree:
1. The fruit has a pleasant unique flavor.
2. I've never seen this fruit in a grocery store.
3. Some varieties are known to grow in temps down to USDA Zone 7.
4. Can take our summer heat (120F) with afternoon shade.
5. Evergreen, with large gorgeous leaves.
Do you have a loquat tree? It's also called Japanese Plum. Please let me know the variety you have and what you think of the taste. There are so many varieties of loquat, and I want to plant more - now to decide which variety!
