Re: chinese quince anyone knows how to have back buds?
Where I've read about it it said that the old name was chaenomeles sinensis and after it was reclassified as pseudocydonia sinensis.
But now I'm confused.

In the USDA website, it appears classified as Pseudocydonia C.K. Schneid.
http://plants.usda.gov/java/profile?symbol=PSEUD45
Here it appears again classified as pseudocydonia sinensis, wihch is diferenciated from chaenomeles and cydonia.

Re: chinese quince anyone knows how to have back buds?
For those who might be interested, some clarification of the nomenclature and taxonomy of Chinese quince (known as Karin in Japan) might be in order. The currently accepted, valid Latin binomial for this is Pseudocydonia sinensis (Thouin) C.K. Schneid. Its basionym is Cydonia sinensis Thouin, the first name ever applied to it. It is the type species of the monotypic genus Pseudocydonia C.K. Schneid. The recombination Chaenomeles sinensis (Thouin) Koehne is an obligate synonym; nomenclaturally valid but taxonomically unacceptable. The same can be said of Pyrus sinensis (Thouin) Spreng. Yet another name applied to it, Pyrus cathayensis Hemsl., is invalid on account of its being a later published, facultative synonym. Pseudocydonia differs from Chaenomeles significantly by, among other things, lack of thorns and flowers which are produced singly rather than in clusters. It is close to European quince (Cydonia), in which it was originally classified, but differs notably in having serrated leaves.

Is it a seedling or grafted? Grafted trees are much harder to ramify. Next season, feed it well and let the new shoots grow to about 150mm long. Prune these back to 1 node (leaf), weaker shoots to 2 or 3 buds. Then defoliate the entire tree leaving only those shoots that have not extended into shoots. You should get some back budding. Repot EVERY YEAR and always feed heavily. Prune the strong branches hard in winter.
