{Chaenomeles Japonica - Japanese flowering quince}


  • From mid March already our Chaenomeles Japonica has been blooming with the prettiest of apricot colored blossoms. A very rewarding dense shrub that blooms year after year and is not fussy at all.
  • This one is planted within sight from our gazebo and those of you that can participate in a Garden Tour from Book an Event with us, can see it while sipping tea.
  • It makes quite a different photo in twenty minutes time for having sunlight or without...


  • The above photo is from 2001! We've had it for quite a while.
  • You can see our gazebo here above...


  • That's the neighbor's home to the right...

  6. Hi Mariette,
    Ik vraag me toch zo langzamerhand af of jij daar een toverstafje hebt. Je tovert de ene na de andere mooie foto op je blog. Schitterende kleurencombinastie, zoals ook nu weer.
    Héél mooi.
    Lieve groetjes, Elly
