Chinese quince used to be called Cydonia Sinensis (a separate specie) or Cydonia Oblonga. I believe Cydonia has been reclassified to Pseudocydonia. This species is known for having white or pinkish flowers and large fruit. Again there are several varieties.

As far as I know both flower on "last years" growth.
