Peachy Double Blooms for Early Spring Color
Chaenomeles speciosa ‘Cameo,’ also known as the Cameo Flowering Quince, is a compact, deciduous shrub that delights with its soft peach-apricot blossoms. One of the first plants to bloom in spring, this multi-stemmed beauty produces textured, double-petaled flowers on old growth that continue to brighten the garden through summer.
As the season progresses, the glossy foliage emerges a red tint before maturing to a deep green, providing an elegant backdrop to its colorful blooms. In late summer to fall, small yellow-green drupes appear, often tinged with red, adding further interest. Unlike many other flowering quinces, ‘Cameo’ is thornless, making it a safer and more versatile choice for gardens and landscapes.
