Notes

'Chisel Jersey' apple (Malus domestica 'Chisel Jersey') 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 bees visit the flowers. This tree is not self-fertile, so plant a second apple nearby for pollination. The fruit ripens late in the season.

Pairs well with Juneberry, American persimmon, African marigold, and Christmas fern.
