Small Attractive Chinese Tree (forum)

Catherine-Calista starts with ...
Does anyone know what kind of Chinese (fruit or ornamental) trees I can grow in WA that are small, (not over 8m) with attractive foliage or fruit. I was wavering between Chinese pistacio, Lychee tree or something else (Chinese ish, to keep my theme going). I have sandy but good soil and full sun position, occasionlly strong wind. Any ideas for me would be greatly appreciated.

The Loquat is a hardy Chinese fruit tree that might do well. I grew one in Canberra and I have one here on The Gold Coast. They have delicious fruit.

A loquat, wampee, Jujube, lychee or a longan could all be possible choices.

I bought my 2 jujube trees from Perry Fruit Nursery in Adelaide, ordered online and sent to Melbourne. They are doing very well except the one on the big pot gives me lots of fruit but rarely for the one on the ground.

It is worth to have these trees

Good luck.
