Hi Mark,

Ed Fackler had seen them on his visit in 1995 at Mikop (as I recall) and he
asked if I could get them in. One of the things that impressed him was the
cider they made w/o additives. And I was able to confirm that here with some
grown here. I have no experience with quince so can't compare them with
other varieties currently available in this country.

This should answer your questions.

Jerry
