Loquat Tree

Loquat Tree - Evergreen Fruit Tree with Tropical Flair

The Loquat Tree is a unique evergreen fruit tree prized for its tropical foliage and sweet, juicy fruit. Its large, leathery leaves provide year-round texture, while clusters of fragrant white blooms appear in late fall to early winter, followed by golden-orange fruit in spring. 

Loquats are deliciously tangy and sweet, often eaten or used in jams, desserts, and preserves. The tree itself is low-maintenance, drought tolerant once established, and brings both beauty and productivity to edible landscapes.
