Plant of the Day
Wednesday 10 October 2018

A wide range of Cydonia oblonga (quince) cultivars were fruiting in the orchards at the Royal Horticultural Society Garden Wisley, Surrey, UK. This fruit tree produces a broad-crowned deciduous shrub, or small tree, which develops a wonderful mottled bark. The leaves are hairy beneath and turn gold in the autumn, while in the spring there are pink-tinged flowers.

Toad Lily (Tricytis hirta) flowering in a corner of the woodland garden.

I once had 3 different plants in this garden but they have appeared to have perished to this garden’s elements; whether be plant/weed competition, summer drought, harder winter seasons, or some other reason, it’s not entirely clear (I say spring plant competition tbh).

This specimen and its two young stolon clones are all that remain; filling the autumn flora slot
