The flowering varieties of the Japan Quince rank among our choicest shrubs. 

 Although of straggling growth, they bear the knife well, and with proper pruning may 

 oe grown in any form. As single shrubs on the lawn, they are very attractive, and for 

 the edges of borders or groups of trees they are specially adapted. Their large, brilliant 

 flowers are among the first blossoms in Spring, and they appear in great profusion, cover- 

 ing every branch, branchlet and twig, before the leaves are developed. Their foliage is 

 bright green and glossy, and retains its color the entire Summer, which renders the 

 plants very ornamental. Special attention is invited to this plant for ornamental hedges. 

 It is sufficiently thorny to form a defense, and at the same time makes one of the most 

 beautiful flowering hedges. See Hedge Plants.
