Serbian Gold (or Leskovac) is arguably the best-suited quince variety for the UK climate.  Warm sunny weather in spring is important for quince trees but of course not something that can be relied on in the UK - but Serbian Gold will generally set a crop even if the spring weather is poor, when other varieties may struggle.

Like many quinces, Serbian Gold has some ornamental value, with the wood, leaves, pink/white blossom and fruit all being attractive.

The fruit should be picked towards the end of September in the UK, and then stored for 1-2 months at room temperature to ripen.

How to grow

Serbian Gold is very resistant to leaf rust infections which can affect quinces. It is also is one of the hardiest of quince varieties, but even so try to plant in a sunny aspect if possible. Training against a south-facing wall is a good idea, as this will promote good quality fruit as well as being an attractive garden feature.

Serbian Gold is self-fertile and no pollination partner is required.

History

Serbian Gold is also known as Leskovac, after the town in Serbia where it may have originated.

Note that Serbian Gold is not the same as the similarly-named Serbian Quince. The difference is that Serbian Gold is an "apple-shaped" quince whereas Serbian Quince is a "pear-shaped" quince.
