Grafted Loquat Tree
The grafted loquat is a highly productive subtropical fruit tree loved for its sweet, juicy fruit and attractive evergreen foliage. It produces delicious yellow-orange fruits with a refreshing sweet-tangy flavour, perfect for fresh eating, jams, desserts, and juices.

Fertilising
Apply balanced fruit tree fertiliser in spring and summer to encourage strong growth and fruit production.
Pruning
Prune after fruiting to maintain shape, improve airflow, and encourage new productive growth.
Mulching
Apply mulch around the base to retain moisture and protect roots from extreme heat. Keep mulch away from trunk.
Pest & Disease
Loquats are generally hardy but monitor for fruit fly, scale, and fungal issues. Good airflow and regular maintenance help prevent problems.
