Japanese Loquat Tree

The Loquat Tree is an unusual, very ornamental large shrub or small tree that flowers in fall and produces fruit in early spring, when other fresh fruits are not available in the garden. The flowers are beautiful and notable for their rich, sweet smell that will fill the garden every fall. It is remarkable to see a Loquat tree bursting into bloom when all the trees around it are becoming dormant and beginning to rest for the winter. The fruits are delicious and can be used in many different ways to add variety and interest to your cooking.
