Quince ‘Vranja’

An attractive tree with beautiful rounded silver leaves and pretty green-pink flowers in spring. The large, fragrant, pear shaped fruits that follow ripen to a lovely shade of yellow, and can be harvested from October. Freshly picked quinces are bitter and inedible, but once cooked they soften to make excellent jams and jellies, and enhance the flavour of apple pies when a few slices are added before cooking.

• Pear and Quince rootstocks:
• Quince C/ Quince Eline/ Quince Adams – Dwarf reaching a mature height of up to 2.5-3m (8-10′)
• Quince A – Semi vigorous reaching a mature height of up to 3m (10′) to 4m (13′)

This variety is self-fertile and does not require a pollination partner.

Estimated time to cropping once planted: 2 years.
Estimated time to best yields: 5 years.

Please note: Patio trees are derived from clonal selections for dwarfism which ensures a particularly compact growth habit of around 1m (39″) in height.
