So currently it' s loquat -to- loquat? I don't want quince rootstock as I actually want a decent sized tree ( want it for screening as well as fruit ).

i have a Mammoth loquat that is on a quince rootstock and it is the most vigorous tree I have seen anywhere. Suckers of the rootstock have emerged about five metres away from the trunk. It is in a very good soil and not prone to overwetting.

Loquat on Loquat is the only way to go where I am. I have both, some on Quince some on Loquat. The Quince trees are small weak and sucker everywhere. So annoying. But you can just ring them and ask.

Thanks everyone for your answers. Yes, ringing the nursery would seem sensible, just assumed they preferred the website given their query contact option diverts to the forum. Don't need more quince suckers, I've got enough problems with rootstock suckers on the 2 fruit trees I have with quince rootstock. Pain in the proverbial getting rid of yep them several times a season.
