Notes
'Golden Harvey' apple (Malus domestica 'Golden Harvey') is a tree for the food garden, grown for fresh eating, cooking, juice, and 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 has a dense habit and grows fast. Bees visit the spring flowers. You need a second apple tree nearby for pollination, since it is not self-fertile.
Pairs well with Nepeta, Standing Ovation little bluestem, Lily of the valley, and Pink Impression tulip.
