Here is a picture of the loquat just one year ago. As you can see from the recent picture it has more than doubled and this is only the end of May.
It stays green year round. I have had absolutely no problem whatever. Very occasionaly a leaf will turn yellow and fall off. So far there has been no mess and no problems whatsoever. I wanted a specimen for the corner of the back bed and it has worked out to be just about perfect. When it flowers it is barely percetible....can't really see it unless you are hunting for it. Same with the fruit. It didn't even fall to the ground. I guess I could limb it up some if need be but I like it natural. I highly recommend it.....as a showy specimen.
