Quince Babies!

I have 14 new quince babies! They gestated for 3 months immersed in damp sand in a ziplock bag in the fridge (known as cold stratification). I was amazed to see that they had begun to germinate in there! They're now in pots and after 2 weeks are growing nicely (if a little leggy from minimum light). I've no idea what the fruit will be like from these plants (do they grow true to type?) but quince trees are so lovely that I really don't mind.
