We were eating ripe loquats in Cyprus last  Sunday!

There is a loquat tree near here  in the well known  Liverpool University 's
Ness Botanic gardens  ( on an outhouse wall opposite the potting sheds.) Of
course it never gets warm enough to fruit here. However a local food canning
company (Prince's  or was it John Wests )used this foliage for illustrations
on the labels of their tinned loquats.
