Yes, I like difficult endeavors… Raised them in a hot house (summer) and heated 5 degrees C shed in winter. They are 5 trees of 5 years old each. Just put them in my orchard. Now producing a ton of flowers. Will keep only 3 quince per tree. Wondering best technics for helping them survive next hash winter season?
Thanks for any advice!

I have a quince, Kuganskaya variety that has survived outdoors for the past three seasons. The first year the central leader was killed by cold and the plant has lived on in bush form ever since. This is its first year with two fruit. As you can see to the right of the shepherds hook it has stayed small but it surviving! I don’t give it any protection in winter.
