Notes

'Feltham Beauty' apple (Malus domestica 'Feltham Beauty') 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. It is grown for fresh eating and juice, and the fruit does not keep, so use it the day you pick it. The tree is not self-fertile, so plant a second apple nearby, and bees visit its spring blooms.

Pairs well with Honeyberry, Garlic chives, and Monsieur Jules Elie peony.
