==How to plant/cultivate==
The preference is full sun, moist to mesic well-drained conditions, and fertile loamy soil. The cultivated Apple is vulnerable to many insect pests and disease organisms, although some cultivars have greater resistance to them than others. Dwarf cultivars are available that produce full-sized fruit on trees less than 10' tall.<ref name="How to plant/cultivate"/>
