| 0 | PI 162498 | 'Fontenay' | Cydonia oblonga Mill. | France | COR | | Not Available | 1983 | DEVELOPED | | | | | | Cultivar | Fontenay or New Upright. - this derives its name from its upright form. It is slender and branching, and forms small, compact trees. The bark is very light green. Its cuttings root very readily. It is used for stocks. - W.W. Meech, 1908 Received from France by USDA Plant Introduction Station on Feb. 20, 1948. Seeds presented by Rene Lepage, Angers, Maine-et-Loire. - USDA Plant Inventory No. 156 From Paris. Fontenay is another quince grown as stock for the pear. The tree is less vigorou than that of Angers and also dwarfs the pears grafted on it. It may be readily distinguished from Angers by its more glabrous shoots, lighter wood, and freedom from the short thorns with which Angers is armed. The trees are further characterized by their very upright growth. The variety is seldom grown for its fruit, which is poorer in quality than that of Angers. The fruits resemble those of the Pear quince in shape and flesh-characters. The variety very readily roots from cuttings. -- U.P. Hedrick, Cyclopedia of Hardy Fruits, 1922. | 1140093 | PI 162498 |
