Plant spotlight of the week: Zestar Apple
Apples are by far the easiest fruit tree to grow in Minnesota. The Zestar apple is an early maturing apple that is crisp and juicy. Not well known yet since its release in 1998 by the University of Minnesota, the sweet and tart flavor makes for both excellent eating and cooking. Ripens in late August and it is a Zone 4 plant.
