Chaenomeles x superba
'Texas Scarlet'

We admit Flowering Quince isn't very rare or unusual, but it is a fine plant that deserves its long tenure in American gardens. Being from Asia, it's technically exotic, and not much flowers earlier than Quince. This is a cross between C. japonica and C. speciosa that has a compact, spreading habit to perhaps 4'. Tomato-red flowers, and plenty of them., in early spring, both before and with the leaves. As I write on March 4, it's beginning to bloom. Zone 5.
