"Knap Hill scarlet" is described as strongly ribbed, and is available
from UK nurserymen.


But it's not the one. ;-(


Has the weather improved at all yet so that the mystery can be cleared up?

I cannot get chaenomeles to bear fruit and would love a fruiting one. At
the moment, I, like it seems others, suspect that your little pumpkin shaped
pome fruit might be in that family and would certainly seek one out if such
proves to be in the case.
