Chaenomeles x superba 'Knap Hill Scarlet'

Well it's a start. Most of the plant is way behind 💗 #februaryblooms #chaenomeles-knap-hill-scarlet #japanese-quince-knap-hill-scarlet

I love these. I’ve bought 2 different ones to train as a hedge.

gorgeous Jane, nice early colour.. @pelly

They'll look lovely as a hedge 😍 @DeborahBanks

Need to see if mine is still alive, only a tiny plant from Wilko last year, didn't really grow at all

Thanks Jo, much needed 👍 @hobnob

They do seem to be rather slow growing. I hope yours is ok 🤞 @hebelover

Oh must check my cutting 👍🏻

🤞🤞🤞 @juliesgarden

Gorgeous 💗

Thanks Elise. I really love it 💗 @Auricula

I think Adele was trying to get a cutting of one of these going - @opiewan

Quite a few flowers second time around for my Japanese Quince ❤️ #japanese-quince-knap-scarlet #chaenomeles-knap-hill-scarlet

Such pretty flowers. ❤️❤️

I love them thanks ❤️ @hkyfvr

Love the bright red of the flowers, maybe in a few years for me

Always welcome. I can see why ❤️❤️

A very worthy plant. This has flowered twice this year 👍 @hebelover

It looks like my Japanese Quince is going to flower again, there are lots of buds on it. Is this normal? 🤔 #japanese-quince-knaps-scarlet #chaenomeles-knap-hill-scarlet #unexpectedsurprise

That’s great Jane 🤗

Thanks Enid, a nice surprise 💕 @godfreye

Mine has had more flowers and so has my camellia- I think it’s the rain - allowing it to go for it 🤔🤩

Now these are the sort of unusual occurrences that are most welcome 😀

Yes you could be right Sharon, I hadn't thought about that 🤔 @sharonhayden

They certainly are Angela 🌸 @italydiva

Morning everyone. I think this has to be my #bestofmarch it’s come on so well since I moved it last year 🌸. Have a super Saturday #chaenomeles-knap-hill-scarlet #japanese-quince-knaps-scarlet

Morning Jane..beautiful..you too🙌☺️

Morning Jane ☕Love this one so much, a definite wishlist 😍

Morning Julie, thank you 🙋‍♀️💗 @juliesgarden

Morning Jane and that is stunning 😍

Morning Jason. If you get one don’t make the same mistake as I did originally and put it where you can’t see it close up very well. It deserves to be seen in all its glory 💗 @hebelover

Morning Jane, it's a beauty! 💖

Thanks Jeremy, it really is 💗 @jpea

Morning Ange, thank you 🙏 @anges

It's something I've wanted since I started, and although I haven't gone out of my way looking for one, it's the one plant I've never seen for sale (that and Garrya..another that I want) I could order online, but shrubs are something I want to see the shape of before I buy. However my friend has just told be about a nursery that I haven't been too 🤔 And from what she's said it could be promising

That is lovelt, mine has never really done much so perhaps a move is on the cards.

Absolutely stunning! 😍

Nice one ❤️❤️❤️

Thanks Elaine, it's in it's second year now and is covered in buds ❤ @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom

Love this Jane ....so pretty 👌😯❤

It's gorgeous isn't it, a real splash of colour ❤ @flof1952

Quince is a mighty showy plant in the spring! 💘😍

It certainly is Shelley ❤️ @ShelleySnyder

Must add one of these one day 😍

You must Jason, they're so worth it ❤ @hebelover

What a beauty ❤️

Thanks Kerry, I love it ❤️ @kez001uk

Beautiful Quince ❤️❤️❤️

#signsofspring #chaenomeles-knap-hill-scarlet #japanese-quince-knaps-scarlet 💗💗💗

Here comes spring Jane! Lovely 🌹

Morning everyone, my Japanese Quince is budding up nicely. Have a super Saturday 🙋‍♀️ #japanese-quince-knaps-scarlet #signsofspring

Good morning Jane that’s lovely the weather is sleeting needs to go away🤗

Morning Enid, thanks. It's supposed to be the same here but we seem to be avoiding it. I hope it stops for you soon 🌨️ @godfreye

That’s pretty 😍

Thanks Julie, I can't wait for it to flower 💗 @juliesgarden

Afternoon Jane, love the flowers on these 🌸🌸🌸

Afternoon Ange, so do I, they're so bright and cheerful 😍 @anges

Lots of flower buds there, had a quick peek of mine on way to tunnel but just new foliage, couldn’t see any buds yet. Hopefully soon 🤞🏼

🤞🤞🤞 @richard.spicer.7906

I had to move this a couple of months ago as it was half dead so I'm delighted that it's starting to flower now. Hopefully it likes it's new spot and will thrive now #chaenomeles-knap-hill-scarlet ❤

I hope so, it was a birthday present last year so I didn't want to use it ❤ @auricula

Beautiful colour ❤️

Thanks Kerry ❤️ @kez001uk

Lovely ❤️ I hope it gets better 👍🏻

Oh so do I Rula, it's looking better every day 💞 @sabbanrula

My beautiful new Chaenomeles #chaenomeles-knap-hill-scarlet #floweringquince 22/3/19

Wow!! I love that Jane. That’s on my wishlist & I’m going to the GC on Monday so I’m hoping to bring one home 😉

You won’t regret it Lexi, I’ve wanted one for ages. I hope you manage to get one @lexijane 😍👍

Thanks Jane. Where did you get yours from ❤️❤️

Beautiful x😊

🤩 that's fantastic

Cor! That opened quickly Jane. Think it likes you 🧡😍

Wow 😲 great clusters of flowers...❤️

It was from a GC near me Lexi, not much help I’m afraid @lexijane 👎👎

Thanks ladies @Williamson @Diane76 ❤️❤️

It was in flower when I bought it Nicola @jendren 😍😍

Really chuffed with it Elaine @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom ❤️❤️

Finally got it in in between the showers #chaenomeles-knap-hill-scarlet #newlyplanted #birthdaypresent 18/3/19

Yay! And happy belated birthday! I must put some chaenomeles in my new border, great for this time of year and a long season of interest!

Thanks Tash, and that's what I thought and that is missing in this border @tash74 😊👍

I think that must be the name of mine.....I haven’t got a label ❤️

It’s called red but it’s more of a coral @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom 😍😍

Cataloguing third one off my wish list today. It’s been a good one 👍😍 #chaenomeles-knap-hill-scarlet 11/3/19

Oh I have the it’s wonderful flowering most of the winter and the flowers seem to get brighter

Good to hear, thanks Sharon @sharonhayden 😍😍

That’s what happens when you retire, Jane. Lots of extra time to go to garden centres! 🤣😘 @pelly

You're busy and this is beautiful 🐝💝

So glad you are enjoying your retirement, shopping 😍👍👏

I’m finding that out Barbara, I need to reign myself in a bit as I’ve also been ordering online 😱 but they are all off my wish list and in my defence they are birthday presents @jacaranda 🎁😘

I’ve wanted one for a while Laura, I had the pale pink one on my wish list, but I decided I liked this better and it will show up more @columbiariver ❤️❤️

Oh it’s great fun Sue @suerichards but I need to stop and take stock now. I’m redesigning the border at the bottom of the garden as I’ve never been really happy with it, so more shrubs are going in to bulk it out a bit @suerichards 😍👍
