Quince – Flowering<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"content_img.726.img.jpg\"Deciduous \u2013 Sun \/ Shade
Chaenomeles japonica<\/em>
Ht. 4\u2019-6\u2019 Spread 4\u2019-6\u2019
key-NOM-me-lees jah-PON-ih-kah
Spacing 3\u2019-4\u2019 <\/p>\n

HABIT: <\/span>First shrub to bloom each year in late winter. Flowers are various shades of red, pink, and white.<\/p>\n

CULTURE: <\/span>Best in prepared beds but tolerates a wide range of soils. Will grow in sun or shade but blooms better in sun. Relatively drought tolerant.<\/p>\n

USES: Spring flower display.<\/p>\n

PROBLEMS: Leaf spot, chlorosis, heat. <\/span><\/p>\n

NOTES: I use this plant more as a source of cut flowers than as a shrub since it looks so bad in the summer months. Native to China. Common flowering quince C. speciosa <\/em>is the larger growing variety.<\/p>\n
