Loquats. Some might ask, “What is a loquat?” Before moving into our current house, I would have asked the same. Loquats are small orange/yellow fruit. The house came with a few fruit trees: pineapple guava, lemon, plum, nectarine, apricot, and loquat.
The loquat tree is quite old, judging from its height. Unfortunately, over the course of its life, it was not trimmed as a fruit tree. Our tree towers over the roof of the garage. I can reach the lowest hanging fruit with my fruit picker fully extended.
Even the lowest branches sit above the top of the garage.
