Japanese Quince (Chaenomeles Japonica) has been grown for the sake of its blossoms, which vary in color from creamy white to rich red and are produced during the winter and early spring months.
Chaenomeles Japonica is a beautiful shrub commonly planted in a protected area. The brilliant flowers of the ordinary red variety are produced soon after the New Year begins.
The flowers appear before the leaves, and later in the summer months, the fruits (Quinces) begin to develop. They are nearly round and about the size of a tangerine orange, ripening to a dull green color. They are fragrant and as hard as flints. The Quince fruit is packed with large dark pips (seeds), which have astringent and styptic qualities.
Chaenomeles Japonica Seed Extract is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. Japanese Quince extract is used in skin creams, lotions, toners, astringents, gels, moisturizers, and products formulated for hair regrowth and baldness.Synonyms
