Notes
'Ananas Reinette' apple (Malus domestica 'Ananas Reinette') is a tree for the food garden, grown for fresh eating and juice. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It blooms in early to late spring, and bees visit the flowers. It is not self-fertile, so plant a second apple nearby for pollination. The fruit ripens late and keeps for 1 to 2 months.
Pairs well with Hazelnut, Wild geranium, and Prairie dropseed.
