Not sure what this is, but just wanted to point out that flowering quince are not always orange toned; they come in pure whites, pinks and reds. Try an image search for some of the beautiful varieties on the market now. I don't think the flowers look right for Chaenomeles though.

Eric La Fountaine , Apr 25, That looks more like it! Do we all agree??? Ron B , Apr 25, KarinL - "Vancouverites intoxicated by cherry blossoms", would make an interesting headline.. Does anyone know where I could buy a Prunus glandulosa tree? UBCBG shop sell them?

I know, I know, call around ; I'm just being lazy. Megami, If you're not successful with The Shop in the Garden or others, maybe try www. Hi, Prunus glandulosa is actually a shrub that has a very similiar growth habit to May bush spiraea. It's a stunning plant when managed properly.

If it is glandulosa and Chimera hasn't found a supplier. Springtime is perfect for layering some stems for autumn harvest. You have a wonderful flowering Almond. In this case, bring the cut branches into the house, put them in water, and set them in a cool, shady location so they can gradually warm up to the indoor temperatures.

It may take a few weeks for them to bloom, but they will be decorating your table far sooner than your garden this way.

Personally, I like to bring in branches just before they are about to bloom outdoors. Cut branches using clean pruners and proper cuts to protect the rest of the plant you are leaving behind.

Proper pruning cuts are made at the base of the stem that you want to remove where it grows from the trunk, ground, or larger branch. You will cut just at the top of the branch collar, a widened part of the branch where it joins the larger branch or trunk. Both of these are damaging to the tree or shrub you are hoping to keep in your garden! Cut the base of the stem at an angle and hit it a few times with a hammer to really spread open the wood to absorb the most water.

Re-cut and smash the branch bases every few days to keep the flowers lasting as long as possible. Large branches look stunning in a demijohn or a suitable replacement like this glass apple juice bottle. Balance the arrangement with tall arching branches in multiple directions, and some shorter branches in the center to create fullness.
