Quince ‘Leskovac’ (patio)
A productive and hardy quince with a neat dwarf habit that makes it perfect for small gardens and patio containers. Like its larger cousins, Quince ‘Leskovac’ is clothed in beautiful rounded silver leaves and pretty green-pink flowers in spring. The fragrant, pear shaped fruits that follow ripen to a lovely shade of yellow, and can be harvested from October. Freshly picked quinces are bitter and inedible, but once cooked they soften to make excellent jams and jellies, and enhance the flavour of apple pies when a few slices are added before cooking. Quince ‘Leskovac’ is propagated onto ‘Quince Adams’ rootstock. It is self-fertile and therefore does not require a pollination companion. Quince trees will begin to produce fruit after about 3 years. Height and spread: 1m (39′). Please note, fruit trees will be despatched as early as possible this autumn, once they have gone dormant and are in the ideal condition for lifting from the nursery and for transplanting by our customers
