Quince

Quince trees produce downy pear-shaped fruitLike all fruit trees, they prefer an open, sunny site, sheltered from strong winds.  They are generally self-fertile. Once they are established, quince need little care except for the removal of dead or poor growth and occasional branch thinning to produce a vase shape, as for apples.  They can be propagated by chip-budding in summer or hardwood cuttings in autumn.
Popular varieties are ‘Smyrna’, ‘Champion’ and ‘Van Dieman’.
