Nope, didn't know that. Hadn't ever tasted a loquat until last year actually.

Thanks! I thought it was kind of funny to be named "Jim" too- since you've help me so much trying to figure this out. 

On to a new tree issue:
I need to replace the stupid bradford pear along the street (in the hell
strip). Any suggestions of what to plant? I want something deciduous- so
that I get the south sun on the house in winter....


Thanks

Congratulations. Don't know the variety, but would suspect it's a
keeper. May it produce enough fruit in a couple of years to make a
cobbler or pie--delicious.

Decided on "Big Jim" finally and got a very nice tree from Capital
nursery.  Expensive!  Hoping it will be very happy where I planted
it and that is will fruit in the next 2 years.
Need to start some fall clean-up here....
