Notes
'Cellini' apple (Malus domestica 'Cellini') 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. White flowers open from early to late spring and attract bees. The fruit is grown for fresh eating, cooking, and juice. Plant a second apple nearby, since this one is not self-fertile.
Pairs well with Honeyberry, Nepeta, Rhubarb, and Carnaval De Nice tulip.
