  • Apples (Malus) About 25 species occur in northern temperate regions, although there are countless varieties and cultivars used for their highly important edible fruit and sometimes for their attractive blossom. They are hardy trees, growing in a variety of soils and climates, and some produce good-quality timber suitable for turnery. Most important fruiting varieties are propagated by grafting on to healthy stocks.
