Summary
Blossoming Loquat (Eriobotrya japonica).

This is a cultivar intended for home-growing, where the flowers open gradually, and thus the fruit also ripens gradually, compared to the commercially grown species where the blossoms open almost simultaneously, and the whole tree's fruit also ripens together.
