Notes
'Johnny Voun' apple (Malus domestica 'Johnny Voun') is a tree for the food garden, grown for fresh eating. 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. The fruit has a sweet flavor with a hint of anise and a lovely perfume. It is not self-fertile, so plant a second apple nearby for pollination.
Pairs well with Flowering quince, High-bush blueberry, Garlic chives, and Blue fescue.
