Quince rootstock can be used to graft all cultivars of quince, with no compatibility issues. The resulting trees will fruit earlier, yield better and be easier to manage than a quince grown on its own roots (propagated by cuttings or grafted onto seedling stock).

Quince rootstock can also be used for grafting pear varieties. For more information see Pear Rootstock. 

Quince are small to medium sized trees, with pretty foliage and beautiful flowers. The fragrant, astringent fruit is useful in baking, and complements apple very well. It is also used for Quince Paste, jams and jellies.

Quince are well worth a space in your garden.
