Scugog is listed as a crabapple (CR) with fruit under 5 cm [S1]. It is described as a "nied" open-pollinated seedling, attributed to Preston at CEF in 1930, with no explicit hybrid parent names given [S1].
Fruit are recorded as 4 cm, with brownish-purple skin and flesh, and the note says the fruit is early [S1]. It is noted for high pectin content, suitable for jelly, and only fair dessert quality [S1]. The name is tied to Scugog Lake in southern Ontario [S1]. Codes include FB3 H2-3 SC1, interpreted as fireblight/scab notation and H2-3 moderate-to-borderline hardiness per the source legend [S1].
