==========================================================
UPDATE:
SEE MY POST ON PAGE 3, 5/1/22 FOR LATEST INFO
==========================================================
This is my way to "pay it forward" to the Loquat lovers out there.
This is for those who do not have any Peluche to get a Free cutting to graft onto their tree.
This loquat cutting will be from my grafted tree that is a proven Peluche with the large orange flesh fruits. The origin of this Peluche source is Adam (Flying Fox Fruits). My tree has fruited for 2 years, currently has many large green fruits on them now. When the fruits ripen, I will post some photos and follow up on the taste comparison to my other varieties. Last year I gave it a taste rating of 8-9 out of 10 (best). I do not taste any funny taste, or mushy texture that a few members here have stated, maybe they have a problem with their rootstock? If there is any flavor/taste that is negative, I will mention it on my review this season.
Here's the free contest rules: IF YOU WON A PREVIOUSLY PELUCHE OR HAVE A PELUCHE TREE THEN DO NOT ENTER THIS CONTEST, LET SOMEONE ELSE WIN:
I will generate the lucky number using a random number generator this time. I will check this post once a day and update if anyone has won. The first person on this post to guess the lucky number is the winner.
GOOD LUCK
1. Only open to forum members that have been a member for at least 1 year.
2. For those who live in contiguous (lower 48 states) USA.
3. You will need to pay for handling/shipping of $10, USPS priority mail, small box.
4. Cutting will be 1/4"-3/8" hardened wood. Tree is a vigorous grower.
5. Contest will go on until some lucky person guesses the correct answer.
6. You must post your guess here, do not send me a PM.
7. Pick a number in the range of 1-150, only two guesses per member.

It might be a good idea to hold off on your second guess so there will be less numbers left and your odds to win may go up with your second guess.
