Japanese Flowering Quince cuttings in training.

The Chojubai is having the second blooming at this time of the year.
It has more flowers comparing to the past. I think it acclimates to the hot dry area!

I've found them to be tough little buggers as well.

Oh boy! I did not post any thing on the forum for months!
This Chojubai has been flowering all the way from February up to today! Unbelievable! I plan to separate those suckers this fall so that I can have more tree to play with!
Have a nice weekend to all.

This Nichi-Getsu-Sei quince is quite weird! This afternoon, I found it had one flower like this. It is quite similar to Satsuki but its behavior is unpredictable!

This Chojubai has been living in hot dry area more than a year. I am confident to say that it will survive here.
It looks like giving the flower all year around here but the bursted flowering is in Spring.
I took couples of pictures this morning. Few months ago, I tried to make some cuttings but they did not survive at all, even though I gave them optimal humidity! Next year, I will separate the small babies from their mother.

Chojubai is still bearing few flowers at this time! The flower is distorted! Night temp. at my garden has been down to 35 - 37 F degrees in 2 weeks.

Wonderful how well Chojubai performs. Good growing Bonhe. Love your Nichi-Getsu-Sei too.

Thank you Leo in N E Illinois.

This Nichi-Getsu-Sei starts having flower buds at this time.
I will start training it next year.

I was able to do two air laying on the Nichi-Getsu-Sei in 2015. I separated them from the mother tree 6 weeks ago.
As today, they are ready to grow fully this year. I will start training them as soon as possible.
The 1st: Double trunk.


It will have the flowers in 1-2 months.


The 2nd


Its flower buds are also swelling up at this time. I can not wait to see they are in flowers!

The flower buds are nicely swelling up as this morning.

I am trying to learn how to recognize the flower patterns based on their bud patterns.


It is interesting that to know that the flower buds usually come with the group of 3!

[bonhe]

Those flower buds are more swelling now.
Yesterday.


Today


Other sets!


Too many in one branch!


Bonhe

p/s: please pay attention the color patterns of those buds.

This afternoon.
Red stripe bud.


Red and white bud.


Red > white.


Red.

Bonhe, any idea on the meaning of the name of that quince?

My teacher told me that the sun is for the red flower, the moon is for the white flower, and the star is for the stripe one.

Tuan... when do you take cuttings for propagation? My quince seem to be a couple of weeks behind yours...

 

[JoeR]

Sorry if this has already been asked but when do your toyo nishiki bloom?

Hi Greg,
I did cutting around March to April. To take cutting from this particular specimen, it is little tricky. If you want to get the offspring with all kind of color, I don't think you can do cutting! It must be air laying!
