    Hi Lee,

    Can you enlighten me as to the edibility of Pseudocydonia? We are looking to pant a quince in the center of a radial berry patch, and i like the ornamental quality of pseudocydonia, but don’t know anyone who cooks with it. Also relative susceptibility of it to fireblight vs. Cydonia… Can you help?

    Thanks. alan

      Not sure about fireblight susceptibility but my guess is that it’s pretty susceptible. I’d put it in the “survival” or “needs plenty of cooking and sweetener to make edible” category.
