DOUBLE TAKE® ORANGE STORM QUINCE -

4-5 Feet Tall 4-5 Feet Wide--

Chaenomeles speciosa Orange Storm® PP20950 / Proven Winners® Color Choice® Double Take® Orange is a stunning reimagining of a garden classic, offering the nostalgic charm of flowering quince without the historically troublesome thorns or messy fruit litter. This award-winning selection is defined by its massive, camellia-like double blooms in a saturated, fiery orange that command attention in the early spring landscape. Unlike older varieties, these blooms are sterile, meaning the plant focuses its energy on a prolific floral display and occasional late-season reblooming rather than producing heavy fruit. This makes it a much cleaner choice for walkways, patios, and formal cut flower gardens where the striking, leafless flowering branches can be appreciated up close.

In terms of landscape utility, Orange Storm® features a dense, mounded habit that serves as an exceptional flowering hedge or a vibrant mass planting. It is remarkably resilient, boasting high drought tolerance once established and a general indifference to poor soil conditions, though it performs best in full sun and well-drained sites. To ensure a spectacular show each year, it is vital to remember that it sets its flower buds on "old wood." Any necessary shaping should be done immediately after the spring flowering cycle concludes.
