Re: loquat update

Don't know about California, but this is the time of year in Florida when they start to bud up [depending on cultivar]. They are generally the first trees to fruit--which makes them susceptible to all kinds of goofy fluctuations in the winter weather. But given the right combinations temps over a period of time, and you get a terrific crop of very tasty fruit.

The new tree seems to be happy where I planted it. Got some new growth showing up : )

P.S. Gave up on the Pluot idea- I just don't have the room for 2 more trees. So, going to get a Santa Rosa plum- figure I can't go wrong with that one given where I live. And it doesn't need a pollinator.
