Notes
'Novaspy' apple (Malus domestica 'Novaspy') is a tree for the food garden, grown for fresh eating, cooking, 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. Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada bred it in 1986. Bees visit the spring blooms, and the tree is not self-fertile, so plant a second apple nearby. The late fruit keeps for 3 months or more.
Pairs well with Juneberry, Comfrey, and Greig's tulip.
