I wonder if anyone out there can tell me what is this lovely plant is called? I don’t know what it is, but I was delighted to see it. Its blossoms were so vivid on this foggy, rainy afternoon.
I realized later that this is a Japanese Quince, a plant that produces small fruit similar to an apple or pear. I saw the same plant during my trip to Halifax seed and recognized it right away. I think that a bird may have eaten the fruit and spread the seeds, so that is why it is growing out of the way by this old tire on the highway.
