Narrative
Cydonia oblonga - Vajri (wild) - is spread and cultivated around Caspian Sea region, in Daghestan, Azerbaijan, and Persia. In Armenia you can rarely find this tree in the wild. Several trees have been found in Ijevan. It is a tree of small size with thick thorny foliage, small round leaves and fruits. Fruits are shaggy, dry, stony hard, yellow, fragrant, 2-3 cm in diameter. Ripening is in October. Flowers are white, rosy; blooming in May; leaves are shaggy, small, with rounded entire blade. Thi wild variety of quince was found in the forest around Byurakan village, Aragatsotyn Marz (province). It was a bush with very small fruits 0.1-0.2 g., 2-3 seeds in each. In contrast to wild varieties, cultivated ones have a length of 1.2 - 1.5 cm. Th fruits arrangement is similar to black current clusters. -- collection notes sent by Samvel Gasparian on wild and cultivated fruits of Armenia, Ministry of Agriculture, Republic of Armenia, 2002.
