Loquat Seeds For Sale - CLOSED

[sc4001992]

SALE IS OVER

=========================================================================

In addition to the seed offer above, since I have been asked if I could sell some specific named loquat fruit seeds, I will make the following available. This shipment can be combined in one package so you can get them with the order above (save on shipping cost).

These named variety seeds are very limited, and only one order from the list below per member. You can only order one of the varieties listed, not one of each. For example, if you order the Peluche then you can not order any other variety listed. I tried to pick some of the best tasting varieties, other excellent varieties did not have enough fruits to share seeds so will not be included here (maybe next year).

1. Only open to forum members with at least 1 year membership, and have ordered the above seeds offered.
2. Big Jim, quantity=5 for $5.
3. Vista White, quantity=5 for $5.
4. KT1-Kosmic, quantity=5 for $5.
5. China White, quantity=5 for $10.
6. Peluche, quantity=5 for $10.
7. You can order only one (item 2-6) of the above choice.
8. Shipping to lower 48 states.
9. No other quantity requests taken, or other varieties that are not listed.

This offer is only while supply last. Do not pay for seeds without getting my confirmation first. I will not sell it to anyone who pays without sending me a message and I confirm that they will get the seeds requested and can make the payment.

One comment about loquat fruit Brix. I have been trying to record the brix of many of the loquat varieties I have tasted this year (47) and the brix value ranges from 10-29. The top 3 highest Brix was from my seedling tree fruits. So it does pay to grow these seedling trees. I will not be selling any cuttings or seeds from my top seedling trees this year but next year I will try to share some seeds or cuttings of my varieties that have brix of 23-29 (super sweet).

I will be making a table of loquat fruit brix in my other posts later this month so you can see how your favorite loquat compared to others..

FYI, there was a question to me about how to store the seeds for 1-2wks before planting them.

Once you receive your loquat seeds, they will stay fresh for a long time, many weeks if you put the seeds in a cup and add water until the seeds are completely covered. Check the water since it may get stale in 3-5 days, then just pour the old water, rinse the seeds and put new water back in. I usually put my seeds in a clear plastic cup on the countertop and leave them their for weeks before I remember I need to plant the seeds. I have very high germination on all the fresh loquat seeds, sometimes to many seedlings so I just pick out the strong plants to keep.

For shipping the seeds, they travel fine in moist paper towel in a plastic baggie. It will last for 5-10 days in this packaging. Or the other option (if you can get it) is to use moist vermiculite and put it in a plastic bag with the seeds. It will last weeks in this packaging. I had some seeds that started to root in the bag when I forget that I had some extra seeds in a bag for 2 months.

I'm buying some vermiculite so if it comes before I start shipping out seeds on Monday then your seeds will be packaged in a small plastic bag with moist vermiculite.

Can you share what your average germination timeline is? I did loquat seeds a few years ago and can't find my notes. I've seen 2 wks to 3 months quoted.

No such lunch.  I received the Peluche which I already have a tree. I wish Kaz would make the Imperiale seeds or scions available. Nevertheless I shouldn’t be complaining since it a nice gesture from Kaz. Thanks Kaz.

Ok, Seed sale is over, here's the final updated order status. Last seed shipments completed today. I hope your seedling trees become one of the best tasting loquats in 4-7 yrs. My best tasting loquat fruit is one of my seedling tree, brix =29.

If you ordered & paid for seeds and did not receive it, then send me a message.



I will remove this information at the end of next week.
