Chaenomeles spec. 'Nivalis'
Chaenomeles speciosa 'nivalis', this ornamental quince is a medium-sized deciduous shrub that does very well against a sheltered wall. This ornamental quince is one of the first to bloom with pure white flowers on the still bare branches in early spring. In autumn, golden yellow edible berries follow, which are quite aromatic and often used in jam. This chaenomeles nivalis is fairly hardy (15°c) and also somewhat sea wind tolerant, making application on the coast possible. It does well in all types of soil from acidic to slightly calcareous and from poor sandy soil to wet heavy clay. Pruning is recommended after flowering.
