Quince

These are some of our Chaenomeles japonica also known as Cydonia amd Quince.

 

Lovley piccies - do you use the fruit?

 

Definitely, had some quince marmalade this morning!

 

I love the vivid red one - but its thorns are vicious, and the dead-wood is incredibly hard!! I've just got myself a couple of the alba version too, and am hoping (but not altogether believing) that it won't be quite as vicious!! And yes, I use the fruit too! :D

 

I planted this one last year on a new part of the building, it has been flowering a month!
