Ashmeades Kernel survived 43 below here in N WI., but with some
difficulty, I rate it a zone 3b apple. It may have difficulty
ripening in short seasons but B Mckently's wife told me that it is
little damaged by fall frosts, maintaining its texture even after
falling to the ground and laying around in the cold, in the fall
after the hard frosts. Haven't fruited mine in Minocqua yet, St Ed's
Pippen is supposed to be the earliest ripening of the russets.
