The Sherry is a common variety discovered by Hugh Sherry in Homestead, FL, in the 1950’s which contained one of the highest pulp contents of most known loquats with very small seeds. Due to the shelf life of Sherry, it makes an excellent fit for jams and for use in cooking recipes. The tree is semi-dwarfing and works well in containers and small spaces in backyard orchards—only reaching about 10 feet in width and 15-20 feet in height. The flavor is reminiscent of watermelon and makes for a great alternative when watermelons are not in season or available at the market. Refreshing and juicy, this is an excellent selection for familiar palatable goodness.

Our Rootstocks

You may purchase rootstocks varying from germinated seedlings to full-grown specimens up to 100 Gallons for a variety of trees and shrubs.

Rootstocks can be utilized as a grafting base for your scions, or you can have us build-to-order customized grafted or cocktail trees for you if you don’t mind the wait (6-24+ months depending on the project). We carry Dwarf, Semi-Dwarf, Standard and Vigorous Rootstocks for many tree types.

Whether you have us graft an apple, mulberry, fig, peach, loquat or other tree or shrub types, we will utilize specific rootstocks based on your needs or location.

Please be advised that custom multi-grafted projects built with numerous varieties or utilizing genetically dwarfing rootstocks require significantly more time.

Our Guarantee

We trust when you obtain germplasm from our nursery that you have done your diligent research and are well versed in the process of grafting or planting seeds.

If you are not, do not hesitate to reach out to us for grafting and planting instructions and well-versed education. We have and will gladly take the time to help.

Despite your best efforts, however, sometimes the graft will fail, the cutting won't root or the seed won't sprout. Could be environmental, or you may need more practice, but do not despair.

We will warranty your scion wood, cutting or seed for a full twelve months from the date of purchase with a one-time free replacement. You did not just buy germplasm, you bought rights to the variety and we want you to have it—no questions asked.
