Default Loquat flowering


"FairySnow" wrote
Our loquat (eriobotrya japonica) usually has a few flowers in the autumn,
but this year it has produced a huge array of sweet-smelling flowers. We
are hoping for a bumper harvest of fruits in the spring if the winter
isn't too fierce. Have other gardeners found the same this year?


It's certainly been a good year for us, Our Tahiti Lime is covered in fruit
in all stages of growth and a Lemon tree I saved from a neighbour has an
excellent crop of fruit for the first time ever.
