Notes
'Brabant Bellefleur' apple (Malus domestica 'Brabant Bellefleur') is a tree for the food garden, grown for fresh eating. 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. Plant a second apple nearby, since this one is not self-fertile. The green fruit has a red flush, tastes sweet with some balancing acidity, and ripens in mid-October.
Pairs well with High-bush blueberry, Garlic chives, Lupine, and Bowl of Cream peony.
