Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Small orange flowers cover this 5-6’ shrub in early spring. Quince are amazingly adaptable from very cold to warm areas. Dry to wet. We grow them in an area of poor drainage and they thrive.
Rich dark red blooms cover the relitively short upright plant in spring. Very eyecatching.
