As the name suggests, this Flowering Quince bears vibrant, double orange-red blooms. Flowering before the foliage emerges, it brings a welcome splash of colour and a valuable source of nectar for pollinating insects early in the year. Throughout the summer, Chaenomeles x superba 'Clementine' is clothed in glossy green foliage. Prominent aromatic fruits ripen from green to yellow to create an eye-catching autumn display, which can be made into jellies and preserves. With a rounded, spreading habit Chaenomeles x superba 'Clementine' makes a fine wall shrub or free standing specimen in borders. Height and spread: 150cm (59").

Van Meuwen strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.
