Cross Ism is an apple entry in N.E. Hansen's 1902 bulletin A Study of Northwestern Apples. The source lists it in a short apple descriptor list, likely among trial or cataloged cultivars rather than a full cultivar profile. The entry appears in a summer to early winter season group. [S1]
The surviving description is fragmentary. It notes a shallow, narrow, corrugated basin. The packet does not preserve a fuller fruit description, flavor note, tree habit, origin, breeder, or release history. [S1]
The name is uncertain. The packet name is Cross Ism, while the visual block reads Cross 1Sm and the evidence claim reads Cross 15M. This looks more like a cross or selection identifier than a stable commercial cultivar name, but the source does not explain the code. [S1]
No hardiness zone is stated. Its presence in a South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station bulletin gives it northern trial context, but it is not proof of zone 3 hardiness without stronger evidence. [S1]
