The Apple Blossom Quince is a deciduous shrub with many branches, carrying short spines. It grows into a wide-spreading bush up to 6 feet tall and 6 feet or more wide, and it is also often grown in walls or fences, or as a hedge. It has glossy almost round leaves, and flowers in winter and early spring on the bare branches, with showy clusters of cup-shaped blossoms that are pink on the outside and white inside, like over-sized apple blossoms. It produces fragrant rounded fruits like hard apples that make excellent jellies and preserves. It is a wonderful shrub for early color in your garden beds, and becomes a gorgeous wall shrub with some simple training

  • Clusters of bowl-shaped blooms in winter and early spring
  • Gorgeous combination of pink and white
  • Fruit makes delicious jelly
  • Great shrub to cover walls and fences
  • Easy to grow and trouble free

Plant the Apple Blossom Quince in full sun. It is hardy in zone 5, growing well and blooming earlier in the year in warmer zones. This tough shrub grows in most garden soils, preferring good drainage and richer soil, but tolerated drought and dry soil well. Deer and rabbits don’t touch it, and it has no significant pests or diseases. When grown on a wall or fence it should be pruned immediately after flowering and again in late summer.
