78. quince (re-do)
For my "One of a kind" flower images project, thriving to reach 1.000 images :-)
When a baby is born in the Balkans, a quince tree is planted as a symbol of fertility, love, and life.
Ancient Greek poets, such as Aristophanes, used quinces as a mildly ribald term for teenage breasts.
The cultivation of quince started 4000 years ago.
Quince thrives both in temperate and semi-tropical areas, but it produces the best quality fruit in warmer areas.
