This thread is about plants that I tried this year and won’t try again next year as well as ones that did really well.

56/ loquats

I have two trees and both got terribly blighted. They only had a few leaves on the branches and they looked on death’s door. So I sprayed them with a fungicide - the only time I didn’t do organic - and they came back but they look really pathetic and rough. Other people around me have lost loquats to blight.

Loquats otherwise don’t need extra water or fert than nature. Fruit should be protected from late frosts.
