Chaenomeles x superba Jet Trail, commonly known as ‘Japanese Quince’, is a compact, spreading, deciduous shrub. It has a low growing and dense habit making it an ideal deterrent for any unwanted visitors to the garden. In early Spring it produces wonderfully fragrant white flowers and as the flowers fade, fragrant greenish-yellow fruits begin to form. These fruits ripen during the Autumn and are often used in the kitchen to produce preserves and jams.
