Key Features

The loquat, also known as the Japanese plum tree, features evergreen, leathery leaves, fragrant white flowers about 1 inch in size, and produces small, sweet, yellow-orange fruits with a slightly tangy flavor.

Special considerations

The loquat tree requires well-drained soil, moderate watering, and protection from frost, needing special care in colder climates.

Growing and Care Instructions

Loquat trees prefer well-drained, sandy loam soil with regular watering; they thrive in full sun, tolerate temperatures down to 20°F, benefit from balanced fertilizer in spring, and require minimal pruning to maintain shape and remove dead wood.
