One of our favorite pluots, Flavor Grenade produces elongated green fruits with a red blush that are the size of a Japanese plum. The texture is crisp and the flavor is extreme! Fruits on hang on the tree for 4-6 weeks, an incredibly long time for a plum or apricot.
One of the best tasting pluots and a frequent taste test winner, Dapple Dandy Pluot gets its name from the beautiful red dappled spots that appear on its greenish-yellow skin. Fruits are freestone and the flesh is a spectrum of red to pink from the outside in with a glorious plum-apricot flavor.

This little known loquat was selected by Jim Neitzel of Big Jim Loquat fame and is valued for its pure white flesh and extremely high sugar content. Sugar Crisp has won many a taste test and is sure to become a popular variety. Performs very well in California but we are still trialing it here in the Northwest.
An extremely delicious and early ripening loquat variety that is widely grown in parts of Europe. Argelino produces orange fruits with a lot of sugar but nice tang to balance them out. We haven’t found Argelino to be the most reliable producer here in the Pacific Northwest, but it is certainly a valuable cultivar, especially in milder parts of the country.
Likely the most dwarfing of all named Loquat varieties, the Advance Loquat Tree was selected in the late 1800’s for its small stature and deliciously sweet fruits. Fruits are pear shaped with a juicy white interior. A great choice for small spaces, though it does require another variety for cross pollination.
