Chaenomeles speciosa ‘Pink Storm’ – Thornless Spring Beauty

Description
Chaenomeles speciosa ‘Pink Storm’ is part of the double-flowering Double Take™ series, bred for showy blooms and improved garden performance. Unlike traditional quince, ‘Pink Storm’ is thornless and fruitless, making it safer and cleaner for small gardens.

In early to mid-spring, it produces masses of double, rose-like flowers in a striking shade of bright pink, often blooming before many other shrubs awaken. After flowering, the glossy green foliage provides a neat summer presence, before warming to golden hues in autumn.

Size & Growth
Forms a dense, rounded shrub, typically 1–1.2 m tall and wide.

Growing Conditions
Hardy and low-maintenance, thriving in sun or light shade and most soils, including clay. Tolerates drought once established.
