Early Red Loquat
« on: September 29, 2020, 05:16:26 AM »
Early Red Loquat is a cultivar of loquat that was bred over a century ago by Taft in Orange California. It apparently had fruit ripening in late January or early February. However that is not the full season I don’t think, because I found a nursery in Orange, CA that says the fruiting window is Feb to April. I'd like to know if anyone is still growing this heirloom and what the fruiting season is for you.

Edit: Sorry guys, I can't find the nursery anymore. I was browsing this a few days ago, perhaps I falsely remembered GA as CA... Willis Orchards has it.

I do not recommend people deal with Fruit Lovers, Prisca Mariya or Fernando Malpartida

Never heard of it and that early fruiting period would not necessarily translate .
What nursery has it?

Yes, let me know the name of the nursery since I live in Orange County.
