Notes

'Freyberg' apple (Malus domestica 'Freyberg') is a tree for food gardens. 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. Light pink blooms open in spring and attract bees. The tree is not self-fertile, so plant a second apple nearby for pollination. It is grown for fresh eating, and the fruit keeps well.

Pairs well with Francee hosta, Carnaval De Nice tulip, and Blue Arrow Rocky mountain juniper.
