Quince Aromatnya - 1 yr Maiden Quince Aromatnya - 1 yr Maiden

The Quince tree is a small ,round headed, deciduous tree growing to between 12 to 20 ft tall depending on soil conditions. A native of Persia and Turkestan, known to the Ancient Greeks and Romans, who dedicated it to Venus and Aphrodite. To them it is a symbol of love and fertility.
No special pruning is needed apart from a little formative shaping and checking for crossing branches, the natural shape is twiggy and branching.
Quine leaf blight is the only major nuisance or disease, but this can be cured with a copper based fungicide.
Leave the fruit to ripen as long as possible on the tree, a strong aroma will develope , indicating ripeness which is usually around the time of the first frosts.Fruit will store for a couple of months in a cool place but try to keep it away from apples to avoid tainting the other fruit.
The tree prefers a moist soil and looks good as a specimen in a lawn or border.
