The contorted white variety is highly vigorous, easy to grow and easily forms a trunk with a swollen base over time. 
• Notes: I love growing contorted quince because they are so vigorous; they quickly form a thick trunk base and can easily maintain any trunk that you have selected to keep. Just keep after the root suckers to prevent them from overtaking the main parts of the plant. The stems are naturally contorted and mostly only need thinning and pruning to silhouette.
