Great scions!  Got 10/10 takes last year (BJ & VW), with a few holding some fruits currently.  Excited to taste them!

Chicomoralessxm, all of these loquats are very easy to grow, like weeds.

Taste is a personal matter, I like all three that is why I'm sharing them. If it did not taste good to me, I would just cut it off and top work the tree.

 These 3 varieties for sale are on my top 5 list: 
-Vista White (white flesh) is top 3 of white fleshed fruit
-Big Jim (orange flesh) is top 2 of orange flesh fruit
-KT1 Kosmic (white/yellow) is top 2 of yellow flesh fruit
 
I do have many more varieties (40+) just to have each type but some are not good tasting. There are some variety people want for the early or late ripening season. Since I multi-graft on my trees no big deal to just add another variety to the collection.

Good luck with rooting, I have not heard of anyone successfully growing loquat cuttings. I might have one growing but thats just an experiment. If you have a controlled environment inside then maybe you can get the cuttings to grow.

Wiparat, its hard to say which one is my favorite. So far I think it is my seedling fruit tree "KT11-Lisa" which is not large enough to share cuttings, flesh is white. I have 15 seedling trees I grew and KT1,2,3,4 & 11 fruits are as good as any top 3 so far. The other seedling trees have fruits that are average, not as good as Big Jim(orange flesh) or Vista White(white flesh). But you never know, the flavor of the seedling trees may improve in a few more years. The three varieties I have for sale now have proven flavor, the trees are over 15 yrs old and have been fruiting with same very good taste.

I also have maybe 10 more named varieties that I grafted which has been said to be rated top 3 so when I taste those (hopefully fruits this summer), I can compare them all together and update my number one favorite.

How much cold can they take about like a avo tree or even colder?

The issue will be flowering and fruiting effectively. The tree can withstand frost well but it flowers in the winter, and frost kills the flowers/immature fruit on many varieties. There are a few large trees in Seattle (8b) that bear good fruit regularly, but also many trees that never bear or bear unevenly.

Yup, that is what I hear. Since I'm in CA, it doesn't effect me much.

I read the following are good for cold hardy locations:
- Christmas
- Angelino (algerie)
- Piera
- Tanaka
- Early Red

I have one seedling that has two crops, once in summer(main crop) and second one in November (smaller amount).

Update:

I will be selling the loquat cuttings for another week only. Many of the branches are flowering or have small fruits now.
I will not cut/sell any more until June again.

Thanks.

No Tanaka, it grows slowly and I haven't tasted any fruits on my graft.

I have small fruits on my Peluche so I should be able to enjoy the fruits this summer. So after July I should be able to cut some (limited) quantity of Peluche for sale.

Its a personal taste thing. Try some and you can determine what you like.
