I'm considering growing some quince espaliers here in San Diego.  A 300 chill hour requirement is my limit.  These cultivars look interesting:

  Orange Quince  (300 hours)

  Pinapple Quince  (300 hours)

  Smyrna Quince  (300 hours)

Provence Quince might also be a possibility, but I can't find information on chill hour requirements.

Any information on fireblight resistance for the above would also be helpful.

 

Thanks,

Richard Frost
