CYDONIA. (Pyrus Japonica.) Quince. QuiTTE, Ger. 
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 be 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.

var. alba. BLUSH JAPAN QuINCE. D. A very beautiful variety of the Scarlet, with delicate white 
and blush flowers. 35c.
