Summerred is an apple cultivar listed as a Summerland, British Columbia selection, referenced by the line “Summerland S 4-8” (seedling shorthand) and tied to 1964 [S1]. It is a standard apple (ST), meaning fruit of 5 cm diameter or more, with fruit reported at about 7.5 cm [S1].
The fruit is described as a McIntosh type with prominent lenticels, bright solid blush, and good color, and it ripens at the end of September [S1]. The cultivar is noted for good quality in both cooking and dessert use and for good yield; trees are described as strong and upright [S1].
Hardiness is described as fairly hardy, with a coded rating of H2 (moderately hardy), and one note also says the assessment was attributed to Nikolai [S1]. It is also marked FB2 for moderate fire blight resistance and was described by Coutts as a good breeder [S1].
