Paradise apple
Malus pumila
Paradise apple thrives in full sun to partial shade and needs regular deep watering during the growing season, especially while establishing. Annual pruning in late winter helps maintain shape and encourages productive flowering and fruiting. Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring and watch for common issues like apple scab and aphids.
