I have never used any of the quinces - someone told me that you should not eat these kind, so I have never dared to use them. I make jam from other fruits though, raspberry, strawberry, mixed fruits if I get enough berries. Love homemade jams, trouble is I eat them and then spend all summer trying to get the weight off. lol (without success)lol :O)

It is a better colour than this photo my camera doesn't pick out the colour very well. Bought another one this year and it is much redder so hopefully it will grow for me into a beautiful bush too.

I love bees, me.
Wasps too.
Ladybirds also.
Worms as well.
Spiders, ditto.
Better stop there. Lol.

I only dislike wasps, they are a pain sometimes in the garden when you are trying to have a meal, everything else I like, just hate wasps.

Right, I'm calling the engagment off! Lol.
They're handy wee things, injecting their eggs into garden pests & the young eat the host alive, when they hatch.
