Notes

'Strawberry Parfait' apple (Malus domestica 'Strawberry Parfait') is a tree for the food garden, grown for fresh eating. 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. The early season apples have dark red stripes over red skin, and the flavor sometimes hints of strawberries. The fruit does not keep, so plan to eat it soon after picking. Thin the fruitlets, because the tree will readily over-set.

Pairs well with Juneberry, Lupine, and Sedge.
