Neil,

mine are ripe too. I'm not sure what variety they are cause i grew them from seed that i got from a huge fruited loquat, hoping that my fruit would be nice and big like the parent. First fruit this year and they are fantastic, big juicy and sweet. I am happy to send seed to anyone who has the patience to wait all those years for fruit ( took about seven years to fruit!).

regards,

Fiona

queensland I know - the wild tree I raid each year finished three weeks ago - - poor tree struggles in a rain forest gully along a creek near me. I do have a couple of seedlings growing because they are quite a nice fruit.

Hello Fiona, Paradisi,
Would be keen to get some grafting material in a few months when my rootstocks are up to speed if we can do a deal, thanks- Neil
