Colorado Bonsai – Chaenomeles Quince ‘Kurokoji’
I purchased a small Chaenomeles ‘Kurokoji from one of my favorite Internet Ebay sellers with the thought of creating tree with more of an artistic style to it they a traditional style. I just potted it up in a nice dark blue Japanese rectangle pot. I will style it in an artistic style after it recovers from its re-potting. I have made a page for this tree under Quince in the Deciduous tree section.
The following description is from Evergreen Gardenworks which is a really great place to order trees from.
“Chaenomeles ‘Kurokoji’ A stiff upright plant to about 6 feet with the deepest red single flowers we have ever seen. The texture of the petals reminds one of red velvet. Needs some protection from afternoon sun in hottest driest locations. This quince does open flowers later, just before, or at the same time as leaf bud break. This cultivar suckers more than most quinces making a specimen bonsai difficult, but the intense flowers make excellent accent plants.”
