Sizes available: #1 (Trade gallon)

Basics: zones 5-9, 4-5' x 4-5', full sun, thornless stems flush with pretty peachy-pink flowers in the early spring, wants well-drained medium moisture and fertile soils on the acid side, drought tolerant once established.

Common names: Flowering Quince

Family: Rosaceae

Origin/Distribution: This is a Proven Winners hybrid. The species occurs in parts of China, Tibet, and Myanmar. Quinces have been in cultivation for hundreds of years and have a long term relationship with humans going back thousands of years.

More: Great cut branch for the vase and can be forced to bloom indoors in late winter. Blooms on old wood,(mostly two-year old wood) so if it needs pruning for some reason, do so right as it is and/or right after it is done blooming, because the summer time is when the buds are forming. Unfortunately, this hybrid will not set fruit, but sometimes we can't have everything.
