Thanks for checking out our video about our flowering quince, it was fun to make and we're really looking forward to seeing what we can make with this tiny harvest. If you have any tips let us know 😀 - Cameron

Here, in new zealand we make jelly out of the quinces. Nice place! We have built up our garden beds a little different. First carton, then a thick layer of (untreated) sawdust, layer of pea straw and then compost on top. Everything started growing immediately. We have a cottage garden, also vegetables and fruit trees. It's so nice to see your garden growing eating your own vegetables and fruit! Do you make also cuttings? Here we share a lot of plants, cuttings and seed with each other.

We're just getting started but, fruit trees and veg are all in the plan. We have a lot of basic work to get the garden established first though. Sharing cuttings is something we're planning on too 😁

One of my ornamental quinces had fruits nearly the size of proper quince. May make some jelly with it!!!

That sounds amazing! Let us know if you do it, and how it goes. I've still never tried quince jelly. - Stina

Thank you so much. Yes, the soil here does seem to be pretty amazing - I guess that might be one of the few benefits of living on a flood plain. It's just a shame so much of it is currently covered in gravel and concrete, but we're looking forward to uncovering as much of it as we can in time. - Stina

Thank you for this, I just bought one of these as a tall ball topiary the other day, It's in flower now Southern Hemisphere, so Im looking forward to the fruit.

That's fantastic! I'm so pleased to have discovered the one we have here, and also looking forward to adding another at some point (they're self-fertile, but two can help improve pollination and yield). Of the books/resources I've looked at, I found Martin Crawford to be the biggest fan of this plant in a food forest and he offers up a simple lemonade recipe. - Stina

Years ago, I had quince “ cheese” as a dessert in Santiago de Compostela. It was vaguely unpleasant - what we would call “wersh” in Scots. The only thing I can compare it to is a Rowan jelly I made years ago. It was kind of almondy- but not in a good way.🥴

I love to try new things and foods so the "Cheese" would be an interesting test, sadly not even close to enough quince this year, though we'll see.
