Chaenomeles japonica 'Atsuya Hamada' | Atsuya Hamada Japanese Flowering Quince

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Chaenomeles japonica 'Atsuya Hamada' produces clusters of warm red flowers in late winter to early spring, each bloom formed with rounded petals surrounding golden-yellow stamens that glow against the rich color. The blossoms appear along the branches as the season begins, creating an early display before many shrubs leaf out. Dense branching carries small, glossy green leaves that emerge in spring and fill the stems with fresh foliage through the growing season.

This cultivar traces its heritage to Chaenomeles japonica native to Japan. In gardens it brings early seasonal color to borders, foundation plantings, and informal hedges where the vivid spring flowers provide a welcome burst of color.
