Notes
'Pine Golden Pippin' apple (Malus domestica 'Pine Golden Pippin') is a tree for the food garden, grown for fresh eating. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It blooms in early to late spring, and bees visit the flowers. The tree is not self-fertile, so plant a second apple nearby for pollination. The fruit ripens late and keeps for 1 to 2 months.
Pairs well with Shasta daisy, Bridal wreath spiraea, and Autumn fern.
