Hortica said: I see the calyx at the end there, so Crataegus still seems likely. Medlar doesn't usually turn orange, but has a similar fruit.


Mespilus germanica..common name Medlar is grown in UK.
Especially in old gardens.
The fruits are very distinctive , weird and wonderful and much larger than any Crataegus fruits.
