I now have three seedlings that need to be potted or planted within another month or so. Does anyone know if nespole is hardy in New England? They're not my favorite thing but my husband, a native Italian, is crazy for them and I'd love to grow my own for him. I brought home some nespole seeds from the fruits we ate in Italy this spring.

I guessed it was a loquat tree but was informed it was a nespole. We were both correct. Gloria, I asked the owners of Pensione Bencista in Fiesole about this tree a few weeks ago.

I didn't know what they were, but I knew how good they tasted! I haven't noticed them here in the States, but I'll start looking. Double yum!
