Notes

'Lawfam' apple (Malus domestica 'Lawfam') is a tree for the food garden, grown for fresh eating and juice. 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. White flowers open from early to late spring and attract bees. Plant a second apple nearby for pollination, since this tree is not self-fertile. The fruit has maroon skin, crisp white flesh, and a sweet, wine-like flavor.

Pairs well with Honeyberry, Grape hyacinth, and Bowl of Cream peony.
