Highbush Cranberry vs Japanese QuinceViburnum trilobum Chaenomeles japonica SOLD OUT SOLD OUT 
Highbush Cranberry produces attractive white flowers in late June and bears edible fruit that matures to a bright red colour in the late summer.
Japanese Quince has bright, orange to red showy flowers that bloom in early spring. The flowers appear before the leaves and may continue to bloom after leaves emerge. Flowers grow on old wood, so pruning after flowering will help to promote new growth next spring. They produce yellow-green fruit that taste bitter when eaten raw, typically they are better suited for making preserves. HIGHBUSH CRANBERRY QUICK FACTSJAPANESE QUINCE QUICK FACTS
