Chaenomeles Double Take Orange Details

Chaenomeles Double Take Orange is a flowering Quince that features masses of orange flowers from late winter. At this time the shrub is an arching network of thornless branches with clusters of tight buds that open into the exquisite, double blossoms. Flowering continues into spring as the foliage emerges. The leaves emerge a fresh green, darken with age, then develop yellow tones in autumn before falling. It typically grows to 1.2 m tall and 1 m wide, performing best when grown in full sun on a well-drained site. It is tolerant of frost, cool climates, and coastal environments. Chaenomeles Double Take Orange is commonly added to a mixed planting, grown for floral art, used as an informal or formal hedge, or planted in clusters for a stunning display. It is an attractive and easy to grow plant that is very rewarding.
