QUINCE: Flowering quince (Chaenomeles speciosa or Japonica) is an old-fashioned deciduous shrub that American farmers of the 1800s often grew on their homesteads for its beauty and sometimes for a little bit of fruit. It's a bit of a mystery why farmers chose to grow this plant, as it does not produce large amounts of quality fruit--it is thought perhaps they simply loved the beauty of its early spring flowers. (Quince) Double Take Orange Storm, A double take is what you’ll do when you see this Quince that has flowers that look like a Camellia. The Double Take series gives Quince a complete makeover starting with a spectacular display of big, double flowers in early spring. The flower color is a bold Orange. Look a while longer and you’ll also notice that Double Take is without thorns or fruit, and extremely drought tolerant. Double Take Orange Storm is excellent for hedging, mass planting and even flower arranging.
