I looked at three of my four loquats and I have observed buds that are now flowering. Normally my loquats flower in the winter and this is the first time I have seen this happen at the end of August into September. For some reason there was little if any fruit on them this june. My pears also ripened earlier this year. Other than being wetter than normal with a couple of dry weeks thrown in between I have no explanation. Maybe I will get a late fall crop this year.
