Notes
'Cherry Cox' apple (Malus domestica 'Cherry Cox') is a tree for the food garden. 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. This apple is grown for fresh eating, cooking, and juice. White flowers open from early to late spring and attract bees. It is not self-fertile, so plant a second apple nearby for pollination.
Pairs well with Juneberry, Shasta daisy, and Hummingbird's mint.
