Chaenomeles Alarm, Quince Shrub

Chaenomeles Alarm is a hardy, deciduous Quince shrub that features lovely flowers in winter. At this time the shrub is an arching network of thorny branches with clusters of tight buds that open into single, bright red flowers. The flowers are followed by ornamental fruits that look like small quinces and are complemented with fresh green foliage that develops yellow tones in autumn before falling as it grows to 1.5 m tall and the same wide. Chaenomeles Alarm is commonly added to a mixed planting, grown for floral art, used as an informal hedge, or planted in clusters for a stunning display.

Chaenomeles Alarm is commonly added to a mixed planting, grown for floral art, used as an informal hedge, or planted in clusters for a stunning display.
