Default UC Riverside Botanic Gardens Subtropical Fruit Orchard

I obtained special permission to tour the Subtropical Fruit Orchard at the UCR Botanic Gardens. This area is not normally open to the public and the gates are padlocked. There are a pretty wide variety of trees that are not typically found in one collection. Most of the trees are 25+ years old. At one time, they had bananas, but those appear to have died (there are still a few markers in the ground).

Sorry for the picture quality, I was using my smart phone.

Here is a sampling of the trees in the collection:

Balsamocitrus dawei


White Sapote 'DV'




Costa Rican Guava


Unlabeled White Sapote


Vernon White Sapote


Hachaya Persimmon


Fuyu Persimmon


American Persimmon


Gold Nugget Loquat


Advance Loquat




Flying Dragon


Li Jujube


Lang Jujube


Dr. White Cherimoya


Pierce Cherimoya


Atemoya


Black Sapote


Dr. Beaumont Macadamia


Sweetheart Pomegranate


Eversweet Pomegranate


Wonderful Pomegranate


Granada Pomegranate


Pineapple Gem Pineapple Guava


Red Beard Pineapple Guava


Coolidge Pineapple Guava


Common Quince
