How cold can Pink Lady apple trees tolerate? I found a growing seedling in an apple and am planning on growing it into a producing tree. Around here, it has gotten down to -15°F. Is that too cold for them?

    They survive in zones 5 to 8 or 9. From what i can tell they’re easy as far as fruit trees go. Pretty hardy! They are not self fruiting though so you’ll need another variety nearby to cross pollinate.

      Yes, if they are good with our zone 5 bitter cold here in Michigan, they are some tough plants!

    Unfortunately not if you want fruiting trees.

    I LOVE apple trees. A classic, like a Gala would be a great choice for pollination.

    I am going to get a Granny Smith.

    You will not get the same apple from a tree grown from seed, I'm sorry to say. Like avocados, in order to get fruit that is edible/close in taste to the fruit you got the seed from, you will need to have a grafted specimen.
