6 of the colours we have. There are more varieties, but the colour differences are slight (to me!).

Those are just GREAT, Eric. Never knew there was so much choice. Do you have names for them?? Is this the same as your pink one?

Our white one is really cr.ppy this year.

Mrs Ava

And are they the fruiting ones or purely ornamental?

Palustris

Tim, they do have names and I will find the labels for you.
Emma, they do produce usable fruit, but they are not Cydonia which is the offical culinary quince. That  tree is not in flower yet.

Aha.  Thanks Eric.  They are gorgeous.  There is a peachy pink one down the road and it stops traffic it is so stunning.  I would love a fruiting one as Quinces are something I have no access to!  I guess they are big trees?

Eric, do like your pictures of the quinces, here is mine, which is like one of yours....
