Thanks everyone, don't think these will bear fruits, so hope the blossom comes back again in spring 🤔 @debs69 @juliesgarden @fuschia

Does anyone know if you can you eat these fruits from an ornamental quince?

They are very bitter the only way to use them that I know of is to make a quince jelly (jam) which I am doing next week 😃 @richard.spicer.7906

Will do, although I'm not sure I've got enough fruit - I can only see two on the whole bush 😕
