(Staff Eyes) The Japanese quinces’ fruits are turning yellow!

The fruits that slowly started swelling on Murin-an’s Japanese quinces in mid-summer have begun to turn yellow. Visitors often ask “Are those apples? Or Chinese quinces?”

Before they turn ripe, they stay hidden behind the leaves, but now that the leaves have fallen off the quinces, their ripened yellow fruits have begun to stand out. You can encounter these big fruits as you walk around the garden’s lawn area.
