Notes
'Reinette Clochard' apple (Malus domestica 'Reinette Clochard') is a tree for the food garden. 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 is grown for fresh eating, cooking, and juice. Bees visit the spring blooms, but the tree is not self-fertile, so plant a second apple nearby for pollination. The fruit ripens late and keeps for 3 months or more.
Pairs well with Shasta daisy, Hummingbird's mint, and Calendula.
