Flowering Quince
Written By Marianna Marinda
Doubles (sometimes thornless and fruitless!) will make a warm spring rainbow along the driveway hill.
Singles in full and dwarf sizes (usually with thorns) are great as hedges and specimens scattered throughout the Rainbow display. Many smaller cultivars are favorites for bonsai, and this gives me a chance to see how all of them can light up a natural setting.
