Add some gourmet to your garden! The quince is valued for its high pectin content and is used frequently in jams, jellies and cosmetics.

Originating from Turkey and Iran this is a fruit with a fascinating history, it features strongly in the history and mythology of both Greece and Rome. Trees are very long lived and have a beautiful, gnarly twisted appearance, they are exceptionally hardy and can withstand both periods of dry and severe cold.
