The Big Jim Loquat (Eriobotrya japonica) is a beautiful fast-growing tree with delicious, sweet, and slightly tangy fruit reminiscent of a kumquat and a plum. Loquats make excellent jams, jellies, and pies. Great as an indoor or outdoor plant, Loquats are one of the wonderful fruits of spring. High in nutrition and flavor, nothing signals the start of summer like a delicious Loquat. They are one of the fastest tropical fruit trees to bear fruit as they can begin fruiting after about 2 years.
As with other tropical fruits, Loquat trees can be grown indoors, on balconies, patios, and limited-space gardens. Enjoy the attractive trees as ornamentals if you choose to plant your Loquat tree in an indoor container!
Our complete tropical fruit seed collection includes Key Lime, Meyer Lemon, Blood Orange, Mango, Kiwano Horned Melon, Dragon Fruit (Pitaya), Hass Avocado, and Papaya seeds. Our tropical fruit seeds combined with our pepper seeds provide growers with a unique experience: paradise and a little spice!
At Tyler Farms, we grow our plants the old fashioned way: no pesticides, no synthetic fertilizers, and we only use all natural fertilizers like worm castings and fish emulsion.
Trees are shipped in 3 inch reusable plastics pots and approximately 4 to 8 inches tall. They are seedlings.
