Notes
'Bedan' apple (Malus domestica 'Bedan') is a tree for the food garden, grown for hard cider. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It has a dense habit and grows at a moderate rate. Bees visit the spring flowers. Plant a second apple nearby, because it is not self-fertile.
Pairs well with Chardonnay grape, Karl Foerster feather reed grass, and Bridal wreath spiraea.
