Notes
'Reinette de Flandre' apple (Malus domestica 'Reinette de Flandre') is a tree for the food garden, grown for fresh eating, juicing, baking, and preserves. 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 blooms from early to late spring and attracts bees. This apple is not self-fertile, so plant a second apple nearby for pollination.
Pairs well with Plum, Rhubarb, and African marigold.
