Quince
Not to be confused with Flowering Quince, the ornamental shrub Chaenomeles, which has smaller fruit.
Similar soil requirements to other fruit trees: Plant in full sun, and space 15-20' apart. Prune like an apple tree. Needs protection from apple borers. Fruits may not ripen in the coldest areas.
Self-fruitful but planting more than one will give better yields. Native to Asia.
