Finally, the rare Meech's Prolific Quince Trees have arrived. The tree that started the whole Heirloom fruit Slow Food Grant proposal. It's taken nearly a full year for this to come full circle. Patience is not my strong suit. When I received the grant, I made arrangements with the only nursery in the US in which I could find them to have 5 of the 15 trees grafted this year to be set aside for me. I had to wait several months to even pay for them to see if the grafts would take and if the trees would be available.

Here is a close up the whips with the little leaf buds on them. They will go in the High Tunnel for winter protection. Meech's Prolific Quince a long with Black Republic Cherries and Tartarian Cherries, and Paw Paws, all compliments of a Slow Food Grant.
