Here is a picture of a bush in my yard. It is now late June and little quarter size green apples are all over it. Can you tell me what type of bush this is?

That's a flowering quince, a chaenomeles, sometimes also called Japanese quince. With just one picture (apparently not even from your plant?) and various hybrids on the market I couldn't say exactly which variety, but the little apples will turn yellow in fall and are edible.

Great plant...be nice to see but probably 99.9 % Stephie is correct. There are 2 varieties, both are beautiful, useful and provide edibles. If your shrub is near walkways or places to sit, not so much. Please send pics to include the environment...– stormyCommented Jun 26, 2015 at 21:57
