Yellow Sweet is listed as a crabapple-type apple entry in the directory, with fruit described as under 5 cm in diameter and marked CR, and with reported fruit color as yellow and flavor as sweet [S1]. It is described as being of Russian origin and associated with Hansen in 1924 [S1].
The entry states it is a renamed cultivar and says it is similar to Yellow Transparent [S1]. It also lists alternate names: Yellow Sweeting, Golden Sweet, and Northern Sweet [S1].
A University of Alberta note says yield records from 1938 to 1940 had to be estimated because fruit was eaten before counts were completed [S1]. The listed source references include Rosthern test notes and Ref FB3, but those references are abbreviated and not expanded here [S1].
