Quince blossom. H. A. N. W. E. everyone!

A different tree. The leaves and blossoms are three times the size of those of my previous post; a different variety I'm sure. I'll be intrigued to see if the fruit will look any different. These I recognised immediately. The others are just so much smaller than any quince blossom I'd ever seen before! One for Project 21: Flowers.

I like this ingenuity and the sharpness of your eye: a worthy observation and study, I agree (even if I struggle to follow their steps).
Have a Nice weekend too, Andy.

Thank you, Eric. I'm comparing this tree with the plant I uploaded three shots back! They look like the same plant (and yes, they are both quince) but the difference in size threw me at first!.

I'm afraid I have zero knowledge of Quince, it looks to be an interesting tree/shrub Andy. Thank you for posting in Project 21.

You are in for a treat should you ever decide to buy some quince jelly, Maurice. It goes very nicely with hot buttered crumpets!

The fruits of my "wild quince fellas" are 1/3 the size of what we call apple- and pear-quince (referring to the shapes of cultivated quince), but!! but the aroma is really very, very well.
They are good to mix with the cultivated when cooking jam - the big ones bring the mass, the smaller wild ones the fine taste.
Beautiful picture.
I took some photos of peach- and apricot flowers today ...

Thank you, Leon!
I mixed my cultivated quince with my chaenomeles Japonica for jelly and jam too! For the same reason, the only difference was that I didn't find or use wild quince.
I will take photos of each tree as the fruit ripens to see what difference, if any, there will be!
I look forward to seeing your fruit tree shots!
