Quince 'Bereczki'

This vigorously growing Hungarian variety produces pear-shaped, large fruits with a very good aroma. The yellow flesh turns reddish after cooking. This makes it ideal and attractive for processing.

Quinces form robust bushes to small trees, blooming late in spring with light pink flowers. Fruit set is rarely a problem as most varieties are self-pollinating; planting different varieties will increase the yield per plant. The fruits can be harvested late in autumn. Wild quinces do not tolerate our wet climate well: special varieties yield the best harvest here. The fruits can be eaten raw, you just need to get used to the sour, moisture-extracting taste in your mouth. Once you get past that, it's a real treat! However, the most common application is as a compote in desserts, pies, etc. The wonderful scent that the fruits emit is striking.
We supply 1-2 year old plants with Quince A, Quince Adams, or Quince Eline as rootstock.
