Got myself 2 new 'pink storm' quince, yesterday. Both were free. So, if i lose them, i won't be heartbroken. Going to do some photo searches of others, and see what can be done with them. I like the movement on the one, and already see, what i think, is the front view. the other, smaller one, i don't know yet, until i get it out of pot. I've read stuff about them before, and they are apparently easy to propogate. So, whatever i cut off, I'm going to give it a try.

They both look a bit anaemic but maybe that's just the photo? Maybe that's why they were free? I would suggest immediate soluble fertiliser then regular fert for the rest of summer.
Japanese quince can strike from stem cuttings, root cuttings or any rooted suckers growing from the roots. Strike rate may be down a bit as they appear to be less than healthy at the moment.

they are pretty healthy, actually. i work where i got them. and have watched them all year. they were free because its getting towards the end of season, and prices dropped to get rid of alot of plants. so, i was able to get these for free. i will fertilize them, like suggested, and was planning on just keeping them healthy til next season.
