I'd like to grow a quince (Cydonia) but not sure whether it'd fruit for
me. I'm in Yorkshire, 400ft above sea level, on clay in a slight frost
pocket.


I live in Australia and we get savage frosts. *We've had temps down to -9C
and it has had no impact on our quince at all. *


I wasn't so much worried about the frost as the lack of a long hot
summer, which wouldn't be a problem with you!
