The flowering' varieties of the Japan Quince rank among- our choicest shrubs- Although of strag-gling- g:rowth, they bear the knife well, and with proper pru nin^ may be grown in any form. As single shrubs on the lawn they are very attractive, and for the edges of borders or groups of trees they are specially adapted. Their large, brilliant flowers are among the first blossoms in spring, and they appear in great profusion, covering everj' branch, branchlet and twig, before the leaves are -developed. Their foliage is bright green and glossy, and retains its color the â entire summer, which renders the plants very ornamental. Special attention is Invited to this plant for ornamental hedges. It is sufficiently thorny to form a defense, and at the same time makes one of the beautiful flowering hedges. See Hedge- Plants. C. Japonica. Scahi,et Japan Quince. D.
