FLOWERING QUINCES 
Flowering Quinces 
Chaenomeles (Cydonia) 
Several quinces originated by us are now being intro- 
duced on an exclusive basis by certain first-class retail 
catalog houses who wish “leaders” of high quality. 
Most of these will be patented. We have two or more 
of these quinces ready for introduction and shall be 
glad to explain the arrangement on request. 
C. cathayensis and its hybrids (6) 
All others (4) 
Our 15 years work in breeding better forms of Flow- 
ering Quince has been recognized by both Califor- 
nia Horticultural Society and Royal Horticultural So- 
ciety (of England) by their Awards of Merit. 
With two or three exceptions every variety we now 
offer was originated by us. 
N. B.—Varieties followed by (C.H.) are Cathayen- 
sis Hybrids. They are rated (6) for hardiness so not 
recommended for Zone 5 and colder. All others are 
safe wherever any Flowering Quinces thrive.

Flowers are large, double and at first snow white 
gradually becoming soft rose as the blooms age. 
Leaves are dark green, long and slender. Growth is 
vigorous. It is a seedling of Mt. Everest which it re- 
sembles in most ways except that this has double 
flowers. We regard it very highly indeed and believe 
it will become very popular. 
We cannot accept orders for this from the South- 
eastern States, including Texas, as exclusive arrange- 
ments have been made for its distribution there.
