The Cameo Quince is a twiggy deciduous shrub growing 4 or 5 feet tall and wide, with almost-thornless branches. In early spring the bare stems are covered in a profusion of beautiful peach-pink double flowers like tiny roses. These are followed by apple-sized green fruits that make delicious, fragrant jellies. The healthy green leaves keep it attractive through the summer months. Grow it in the front of shrub beds, as a low hedge, in semi-wild areas or tied up against a wall or fence.

  • Beautiful apricot-pink double blooms in very early spring
  • Glossy green summer leaves
  • Fruits can be used for fragrant preserves and jellies
  • Lovely trained up against a sunny wall
  • Deer-proof and trouble-free

The Cameo Quince blooms best when growing in full sun, especially in cool zones. It will bloom in zone 4 when grown on a sunny wall. It grows in all soils, from dry sands to hard clay, and it is free of pests, diseases, and it’s deer-proof. Prune in spring as soon as blooming is over, and trim lightly in late summer for neatness. An easy, reliable and beautiful garden shrub.
