A few years ago I purchased this Big Jim White loquat seedling, propagated by Leo Garcia of Exotica Nursery.
It’s been in the ground a few years now and getting a bit top heavy. Today I loosely triangulated it with some heavy cord.

Big Jim white is a pretty good tasting loquat, hope your seedling comes out as good.

Nice size. I was happy to get Golden Nugget and a Tanaka growing well and away from rabbits. Planted them by some chicken pens with a Guardian dog on duty there.

Good luck with those, that’s some impressive growth. Mine (a seedling of ‘Healdsburg’) took a good 14 years to finally fruit this year, at somewhere’s around 15ft tall now, so I really hope the wait is worth it on these guys.
Only one fruit set across the entire tree, but I guess that should be expected considering it was self-polinated.
