Fruit TreeApple
Malus pumila
Apple (Malus domestica) is a deciduous fruit tree with white spring blossoms and familiar round fruits in red, yellow, or green. In NE Florida zone 9b, only low-chill cultivars such as 'Anna', 'Dorsett Golden', and 'TropicSweet' are viable — standard cultivars fail to break dormancy without sufficient winter chill hours. Plant two compatible low-chill varieties for cross-pollination and fruit set.
