Notes

'Uttwiler Spätlauber' apple (Malus domestica 'Uttwiler Spätlauber') 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 blooms from early to late spring and attracts bees. This apple is not self-fertile, so plant another apple nearby for pollination. The fruit keeps for 3 months or more.

Pairs well with Serviceberry, Common milkweed, and Pink Lemonade blueberry.
