Notes

'Winter Wonder' apple (Malus domestica 'Winter Wonder') 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 fruit has dense, firm, chewy flesh with a good amount of juice and a fairly sharp flavor. Bees visit the spring flowers, and you will need a second apple tree nearby for pollination.

Pairs well with Anise hyssop, Honeyberry, and Johnny jump up.
