Flowering Quince

Chaenomeles Early Orange is a hardy, deciduous shrub that features lovely flowers in winter. At this time the shrub is an arching network of thorny branches with clusters of tight buds that open into double, vibrant-orange blossoms. The flowers are followed by ornamental fruits that look like small quinces and are complemented with fresh green foliage that develops yellow tones in autumn before falling. It typically grows to 1.5 m tall and the same wide. Chaenomeles Early Orange is commonly added to a mixed planting, grown for floral art, used as an informal hedge, or planted in clusters for a stunning display.
