Hi-ho,

I read about making apple (Malus P. Mill.) cider in an old "Make" (or was it "Craft")
magazine about making apple (Malus P. Mill.) cider.

Now I have a burning desire to plant apple trees and make cider. Despite
the probable 4-10 year delay as the trees grow, what I really want to
know is if the right sort of trees are available? I live near Newcastle
(well, not right now, but will eventually) NSW. Does it have to be
really cold for apples?

Does anyone have any experience with this?

cheers,
-kt
