In a Nutshell:
* The quince (pronounced /?kw?ns/ ), or Cydonia oblonga , is the sole member of the genus Cydonia and native to warm-temperate southwest Asia in the Caucasus region. It is a small deciduous tree , growing 5–8 m tall and 4–6 m wide, related to apples and pears , and like them has a pome fruit , which is bright golden yellow when mature, pear-shaped, 7–12 cm long and 6–9 cm broad. more...
* When grown in warm temperate or tropical climates, the fruit can become soft and juicy and is suitable for eating raw. In cooler climates such as Britain, however, it remains hard and astringent and needs to be cooked before being eaten. It is used in jellies, preserves etc. The cooked fruit adds a delicious flavour to cooked apples. more...
