Notes
'Stoke Red' apple (Malus domestica 'Stoke Red') 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 hard cider, and the fruit ripens late in the season. Bees visit the spring blooms. Plant a second apple nearby, since this tree is not self-fertile.
Pairs well with Lemon Queen sunflower, Hummingbird's mint, and Autumn fern.
