I have several loquat trees some above 6 foot some for foot some to fit all different heights prices or according to hide starting at $25 they are very well-established and they're in the ground I will not dig up until you are sold on them because they are well-established.

Health Benefits of Loquat fruit

Delicious, loquats carry lower calories; provide just 47 calories per 100 g. Nonetheless, they are rich in insoluble dietary fiber, pectin. Pectin holds back moisture inside the colon, and thus functions as bulk laxative. This way, it helps protect the colon mucosa by cutting exposure time of toxic substances as well as binding to cancer-causing chemicals in the colon.

Pectin has also been shown to reduce blood cholesterol levels by lowering its reabsorption in the colon through binding bile acids, resulting in its excretion from the body.

Loquat fruit is an excellent source of vitamin-A(provides about 1528 IU or 51% of daily recommended levels of this vitamin per 100g), and phenolic flavonoid antioxidants such as chlorogenic acid, neo-chlorogenic acid, hydroxybenzoic acid, feruloyl quinic acid, protocatechuic acid, epicatechin, coumaric acids and ferulic acid. Ripe fruits have more chlorogenic acid concentrations.

Vitamin-A helps maintain the integrity of mucosa and skin. Lab studies suggest that consumption of natural fruits rich in vitamin-A, and flavonoids may offer protection from lung and oral cavity cancers.

Fresh fruit is good in potassium and some B-complex vitamins such as folates, vitamin B-6 and niacin and contain small amounts of vitamin-C. Potassium is an important component of cell and body fluids that helps to regulate heart rate and blood pressure.

Furthermore, the fruit is also an excellent source of iron, copper, calcium, manganese, and other minerals. The body uses manganese as a co-factor for the antioxidant enzyme, superoxide dismutase. Copper is essential in the production of red blood cells. Iron is required for as a cofactor in cellular oxidation as well in red blood cell formation.

Loquat Fact Sheet

The loquat, an ancient fruit grown in Japan for the past 1,000 years, is probably native to the cooler hill regions of China. For many years, loquats have been grown as ornamentals in California, especiallly along the southern coastal plains. They do well in a wide variety of soils and climates but are not grown commercially in California.
Loquats are normally bushy, rather dense trees. Their broad, leathery, dark-green leaves are often used in floral arrangements. Easily grown, attractive trees in the garden, they blossom and set fruit from October to February. Selected varieties produce clusters of excellent yellow fruit that mature in the spring and early summer.
Soils

Most soils, except those that are alkaline, are suitable for loquats. Good growing conditions produce the best fruit and tree growth. Poor soil and a low water supply reduce tree growth; the tree usually produces fruit with good color and flavor, but with a large seed and little flesh.

Climate

Classified as subtropical fruit, loquats are grown most successfully in citrus-producing areas. For ornamental purposes, they can be grown in areas too cold for citrus, but they need heat to mature a crop. Fruit grown along the central California coast rarely have good flavor or color and seldom develop enough sugar content to make them sweet.

Varieties

Unbudded trees grown from seed are satisfactory for ornamental use, but they seldom bear good fruit. For best results, plant one of the budded, named varieties, such as Early Red for February fruit, Champagne or Thales for March to April, Advance for April to June, or Victor for May to July.

Planting

The best choice is a balled, 1-year-old, vigorously growing, grafted tree. Plant as you would any balled plant. Allow space so that the tree, when fully mature, will fit into your landscape. Trying to control tree growth is a tedious, continuing task. A 5-year-old tree is usually bushy with a spread and height of 6 to 8 feet. At 10 years, it should be 12 to 15 feet tall and wide.

Irrigation

Athough the loquat is remarkably drought resistant for a broadleaved evergreen, it needs moisture at all times, particularly in the summer. After the tree is established, keep irrigation water away from the trunk. As the tree matures, do not irrigate closer than half the distance between the trunk and the outer reach of the branches. If the tree is 6 to 8 feet from a lawn or other irrigated area, it does not usually need special irrigation.

Fertilization

Do not put fertilizer in the hole before you plant the tree. For a young tree, apply a shovelful of manure in the fall, plus a tablespoonful of nitrogenous fertilizer scattered around the tree every month or two. Fertilize mature trees once a year in early spring. Use a nitrogenous fertilizer, such as ammonium sulfate or calcium nitrate, at the rate of 1 pound per inch of trunk diameter, spread evenly over the irrigated area.

Pruning

Prune only enough to shape the tree to fit into your landscape. Remove deadwood at any time. Loquats do well as espaliered trees if continuously clipped to keep them in place. If a tree must be kept down to a certain size, clip it frequently to prevent the unsightly stubs and sucker growth that result form a single severe pruning.

Pest and Disease Control

Loquats are quite resistant to most diseases and insect damage. Although fireblight often attacts the flower clusters and may kill a lim or two, it seldom kills the entire tree. To control fireblight, immediately prune out dead or dying twigs, fruit , and flower clusters. Cut well into the live wood. Burn the pruning and disenfect the pruning tools.
