ODD CHINESE QUINCE 



The most striking thing about the Chinese flowering quince is its huge 

 fruit, in comparison with the Japanese quince whose small, irregular, 

 pocket-size fruit is familiar to all. Its flowers and fruit are not abundant 

 on individual plants and the small tree is not especially ornamental. But, 

 no one grows it much. Let us believe, however, that to see the plant with 

 its occasional large fruit is rather thrilling. It may be a solitary specimen 

 that seems somehow misplaced, hung on the plant as an ornament. Its 

 leaves are larger than those of the familiar Japanese species, the occasional 

 flowers are light pink and the lonely fruits about 6 inches. As a real oddity, 

 every nurseryman should have it on his grounds. It can be a reminder of 

 the delicious fragrance of the smaller fruit of the Japanese quince. This 

 Chinese fruit resembles that of a large pear.
