For those who I did not commit to send seeds there are no more left now. I only collected seeds from larger fruits. Even without thinning tree, the fruits are larger then most loquats I have see. Most fruits have 1-2 seeds some have a few more. Flavor is excellent sweet/sour taste. It yields very heavy every 2 years (on the follow years is a lighter yield but still decent amount of fruit production).

Seedling offspring are really close to mother tree and produce in 2-4 years after planting (verified with friend that planted seedling trees that produced fruit).

nice size fruits

Thanks, they are as tasty as they look too. I have to see if I can get some samples to give to JF and others (problem is they dont last more then a 3-4 days in the fridge after picking).

nullzero,

Do you ship internationally ?.

Very nice. Any scion wood available?

I'be been collecting varieties recently for my seedling tree. Hopefully fireblight don't kill it. I didn't know it's susceptible.

Fang,

I can get you scionwood after the fruiting is done. 2 weeks perhaps?

Are loquats true to type?

I believe there is slight variation, the tree produces seedlings and fruit very close to the mother tree. This is my friends tree and he told me he planted a seedling out at his Aunts place. The tree was not different in his eyes in the fruit taste and size from the first crop from last year.

No more seeds left now, those who got some update with some future seedling pictures

These are heavily planted in my area, are now yellow (end of April), and will be turning orange, within a few weeks. I will collect seeds on request. There are very fat fruit, overhanging a parking lot, across the street from my house.

nullzero · « **Reply #11 on:** May 04, 2015, 09:32:10 PM »

*Update* I have 10 more seeds left for $5 plus shipping.

nullzero · « **Reply #12 on:** May 13, 2015, 01:01:36 PM »

~~Have one more lot of 10 seeds for $5 + shipping. Seeds just harvested from the last fruit of the season.~~

nullzero · « **Reply #13 on:** February 08, 2016, 07:33:22 PM »

I will be getting another crop in about a month and a half of this loquat. For those interested its the same price 10 seeds for $5. I will update when the fruit gets closer to being ripe.

Hey nullzero, can you get scions off this tree? I have a Gold Nugget seedling that I am looking to graft something onto and this variety looks great!

I can check with my friend this weekend. To see if there are good branches to take scion of. If there is can arrange something, just message me in private tell.

I'd also be interested in some budwood if possible. Thanks!

nullzero · « **Reply #18 on:** February 10, 2016, 05:24:54 PM »

My friend said he would be interested in a trade for good guava scion for loquat scion from this tree.

fyliu · « **Reply #19 on:** February 11, 2016, 02:42:59 AM »

Isn't guava difficult to graft? I never tried but heard failures from other people. Anyway I'll PM you too.

I just tried three grafts onto my Red Malaysian. I will let you know if they take.

fyliu · « **Reply #21 on:** February 11, 2016, 03:49:55 PM »

I just do air layers. Guavas roots are very vigorous.

nullzero · « **Reply #22 on:** March 09, 2016, 03:26:41 PM »

Seeds should be available in May to June. Please PM if interested in buying seeds. For those who contact me Before April 1st, the price will be .50 a seed + shipping and handling (between $5 to $10 domestic shipment). After April 1st price will be .75 a seed + shipping and handling.

Any budwood requests would be done after fruiting season is done in June. Budwood would be $4 a piece wrapped in buddy tape + shipping and handling.
