Description
O Yashima Quince (Chaenomeles speciosa 'O Yashima') is an elegant and early-blooming flowering quince that brings a refined, delicate beauty to the late winter or early spring garden. Known for its large, pristine white blossoms, this deciduous shrub blooms on bare branches before the foliage emerges, creating a dramatic display when little else is flowering. The flowers are lightly fragrant and often appear in clusters, making it a standout specimen or a beautiful hedge option.
In addition to its ornamental appeal, 'O Yashima' is tolerant of poor soils, resistant to deer, and generally easy to grow. Though it can produce small, hard fruits, it is mostly prized for its floral display.
