Notes
'Baguette d'Hiver' apple (Malus domestica 'Baguette d'Hiver') is a tree for the food garden. 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. The apples are grown for fresh eating, juice, and hard cider, and they keep for three months or more. The tree flowers late in spring, so it pollinates other late-flowering apples. Fruit forms on the branch tips, so routine pruning is not usually needed.
Pairs well with Pink Lemonade blueberry, Grape hyacinth, and Prairie dropseed.
