Astrachan White is listed as a standard apple, not a crabapple, in Edible Apples in Prairie Canada.[S1] The surviving note is very brief, but it places the cultivar in the prairie apple record and links it to Skinner's 1947 catalog.[S1]
The source does not give parentage, breeder, place of origin, fruit description, season, or tree characteristics for Astrachan White.[S1] The clearest documented fact is that it was recognized in prairie fruit literature as a named standard apple, and that Skinner's nursery catalog was part of its source trail.[S1]
This makes Astrachan White more of a traceable historical name than a fully described cultivar in the current record.[S1] It is still worth noting because names preserved in nursery catalogs can point to older circulation networks, local testing, and cultivars that may have been more widely grown in prairie orchards than modern descriptions now suggest.[S1]
