I found a group of flowers on one of air-layered Toyo nishiki "Nichi-Getsu-Sei" this morning.
It has salmon pink color with a thin white band around the petal edges!!! So sweet. This is the first time I saw this color in my flowering quinces!


Comparing to red flower of other cutting.

I used the chojubai flower to touch to the above flowers.


Then I marked it.


Another group of flower buds.

Your pink blooms are so rich!

I got another flowers on the mom this afternoon.
I really like it!!! So cool!


This is a daughter!

with pure white!


I, myself, consider Toyo nishiki "Nichi-Getsu-Sei" is the queen of the flowering quinces!

This one was collected from root suckers in the garden one year ago. I still have few clumps to be collected.

This flower from "mom" starts fading off.


This air layering one has more swelling flower buds.

Yes, TP.
Last year, I bought a couple of Peppermint flowering peach for my aunt and uncles who are living in Seattle.

Just repotted 6 I got from seeds.

I don't remember which ones were from 'Nivalis', or the two other potted varieties that I have (mostly "pink salmon" colour) and the one from the plain species (red).

I hope that they hybridized. I kept all the pots under the plain species, close to each others so that the bees and insects and the wind might fertilize another variety. Perhaps I can have new colours, but it's more about gardening than bonsai so far.

It's a bit like when I plant maple seeds from my garden (I have over 20 J. maples cultivars, but much fewer producing seeds) : who doesn't hope for the "unusual seedling"?...

Hi AlainK,
I hope so.
Yes, I believe hybrid is better than pureness.

I have another kind of flowering quince admitted to my collection today!
My teacher just gifted me this contorted quince. He calls it as Unryu quince. Unryu means Cloud Dragon in Japan. I compared its branch characteristic with Namnhi 's contorted quince in post # 180 . They have a different look!

The one in # 187 has flower buds more swelling today.


Another air layering one.


I accidentally knocked one flower bud off!!!
It looks like an unskilled artist draws red bands on the white canvas!

We went by there yesterday. They had some contorted red, but nothing that looked very good.

I think Brent may have some (Evergreen Gardenworks)

Mt. Fuji Nursery in Uplands had some very nice contorted white and contorted pink/salmon for around $29 I believe. They are in Uplands I think.
