Wiki Draft

Canada Hardy is listed as an apple cultivar in Prairie Canada and the Canadian prairie fruit cultivar indexes. [S1][S2]

The entry names O.W. Harrison as the selector or introducer and gives 1953 as the year, placing him at Carnduff, Saskatchewan. [S2] The same cultivar also appears in another prairie list with only a short note and no broad origin statement, so origin details remain limited. [S1][S2]

The fruit description is minimal; the records list it as light green. [S1]

No parentage is provided, and no breeding cross details are stated for Canada Hardy. [S1][S2]

No fruit-size, flavor, season, storage, tree habit, pruning, productivity, or disease notes were extracted for this entry. [S1][S2]

A reference shorthand appears as "Ref Smithfield," but the record does not explain what that label means here. [S1]

Hardiness is not stated directly in these packets. The sources show Canada Hardy in prairie orchard documentation, but do not provide a direct hardiness-zone statement for this cultivar. [S1][S2]
