Notes
'Barnack Beauty' apple (Malus domestica 'Barnack Beauty') 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. It is grown for fresh eating and cooking, and the sharp-flavored fruit is picked late. White blooms open in early to late spring and attract bees. This apple is not self-fertile, so plant a second apple nearby for pollination.
Pairs well with Rhubarb, Weigela, and Black Parrot tulip.
