That’s a question for David Vernon at Century Farm Orchards. Email him he’s quick to reply.

Thanks for the suggestion. I’ve been in contact with David. He does not have much cause to know cold hardiness information as he sells out in his region. I’m in zone 5a on the border with 4b, and am looking to find the most disease free and late dropping trees - a large variety. The Joseph apple tree looks like a potential candidate.
