It rightfully belongs to the category of “forgotten fruits.” Cultivated since the time of Ancient Greece, widespread in vegetable gardens and orchards until the early 1900s, now its cultivation is very limited. The scientific name Cydonia derives from Cidonia city on the island of Crete from which quinces known as “cydonee apples” came in Roman times. A very hardy, rustic plant, it prefers soils with little lime. In the past the fruits were used to perfume linens in drawers as an alternative to lavender, important, since Roman times, the phytotherapeutic use, which remained in folk medicine for a long time.
