Loquat

Eriobotrya japonica

RHS Award of Garden Merit

This much sought after fruit, botanically known as Eriobotrya japonica (the inference being it is actually Japanese) makes a handsome garden tree with its large attractive leaf form.

Evergreen in habit.

In our experience it is hardy.

Golden orange fruits (about the size of very big cherries) set in clusters.

Supplied as a 1 litre pot grown plant approximately 8" - 12" tall.
