Flowering Quince

Selena Haziran 07, 2022

I said to my husband the other day "I wonder if the Quince is flowering"....he said "yes I told you it was and you'd better hurry and see it or you'll miss it". I thought Oh my goodness I'm going to miss it again. So I went out in the dark with my flashlight and camera in hand. It had been raining most of the day but had stopped a few hours before.

This is the way it looked a few weeks ago

and this is it in full bloom. You can see the leaves glistening in the light. I was so happy to see the rain hadn't knocked any of the blossoms off.

The next day I decided I should see it in the daylight... though it was early evening the sun was still out. It was even prettier than the previous night. I think one year it had gotten a few quince that matured on it but you can't do much with them....the flowers are the reason to grow this plant.
