The Dwarf Quince only grows to 3 – 4’ in height, but twice as wide. They tolerate pruning well, so you can reduce their width if you’d like, or use them as a bonsai specimen. The plants tolerate drought & clay, & most soil conditions except wet. They can even grow in full shade but produce less fruit, which doesn’t matter if you wish to use their thorny branches as a security plant, or to help control erosion. Extremely showy bright red flowers absolutely cover the plant
