Chaenomeles japonica 'Sargentii' Flowering Quince, Japanese Quince, Japonica

An excellent ground cover shrub, Chaenomeles japonica 'Sargentii' has prostrate growth, punctuated with beautiful, orange flowers during the spring. Later in the summer, eye-catching golden fruits then follow. These aromatic autumn fruits are edible but not considered palatable unless cooked.

The Japanese Dwarf Quince is perfect for growing alongside spring-flowering bulbs such as daffodils and tulips or training against walls and fences. Will be happiest in a sunny border. Height: 100cm (39"). Spread: 200cm (78").
