More on Quinces

Googling 'history of the quince' produced this article in The Washington Post.

Having been so impressed with the trees I saw yesterday, it would be great to plant one in the garden. If anyone has any tips on growing a quince, I'd love to hear them. 

The quince jam will have to wait until tomorrow - I was too busy today, especially with  watering the plot after another hot September day - according to the news it's not been this hot in September for 100 years. 


I don't mind leaving the quinces until tomorrow, they are giving out a heavenly scent.
