Where we lived previously in southern oregon, I lost two (all) quinces -
Pineapple and Aromatnaya - to presumably fireblight, though I never had
problems on the apple or pear trees, even the bartlett 30' away.
Having moved to a warmer wetter climate (Willamette valley), I'd think the FB
risk was higher. I can't find information on if some varieties of (fruiting)
quince have more FB resistance?
thanks
