Chaenomeles speciosa spp
New in 2025.
Exhibiting similar qualities as its parent, this seedling of the Toyo Nishiki Flowering Quince is a compact, ornamental shrub that's much more disease resistant than "fruiting quince". It thrives in the landscape. Blooms are similar to parent.
At the time of this writing, we are unsure as to fruit size and flavor because this is a new cultivar-plant to us, and we haven't had it bear fruit yet.
The flowers bloom early with forsythia. Fruits mature in fall. Space 6' circle. Zones 5-8.
