Notes
'Red June' apple (Malus domestica 'Red June') is a tree for the food garden. 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 is a heavy bearer, but it tends to bear fruit every other year. It can rebloom and give a lighter second crop in fall. Scab and cedar rust can affect it, so give it good air flow.
Pairs well with High-bush blueberry, Garlic chives, and Common milkweed.
