This vibrant scarlet, early spring flowering shrub from the Double Take® series is delightful in mixed borders, cutting gardens, hedges, and mass plantings. The large, fully double blooms reach out to the tips of the branches, look like camelias, and emerge before foliage. The best flower production is in full sun, often reblooming in the fall. Bring branches with unopened buds indoors for showy arrangements. Chaenomeles Double Take Scarlet is salt, drought, and heat tolerant once established. A timeless garden favorite that is deer resistant and attracts both bees and butterflies. This Quince variety is thornless and does not produce fruit.
