Notes

'Campfield' apple (Malus domestica 'Campfield') is a tree for the food garden, grown for hard cider. 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 from early to late spring and attracts bees. Plant a second apple nearby, since this tree is not self-fertile. The fruit ripens late and keeps for 1 to 2 months.

Pairs well with American persimmon, Calendula, and Ostrich fern.
