Won't crabapple do it?  My Centennial seems to furnish enough to do the job 
and my Dorsett develops enough fruit to feed the cedar apple rust and apple 
maggots.
"Lacy" apple from Lee Calhoun in Pittsboro, NC is said to survive and 
produce here in the Sandhills.  I haven't tried it. Been too busy with seven 
varieties of figs, eight different muscadines, five kinds of rabbiteyes, 
three varieties of mulberries and several types of blackberries.  We are 
blessed.  Let's try a Musa 'Orinoco' Banana.  I've heard we can get a crop 
down here.
