Double Take® flowering quinces take everything you love about this springtime favorite and update them for today’s gardens and landscapes. These Chaenomeles speciosa are thornless with very large, fully doubled blooms. Double Take® Scarlet quince’s branches are packed with vibrant, cheerful red blooms in spring, a bold choice for spring color. It’s also a very durable option for landscapes and home gardens, tolerating deer, drought, and heat. Double Take® Scarlet flowering quince was developed by Dr. Tom Ranney and his team at the Mountain Horticultural Crops Research & Extension Center in North Carolina.
