A hardy variety well-suited for colder climates, Mormon is a popular choice in the Intermountain West and similar regions. It produces small to medium, sweet, golden fruit that ripens in mid to late summer and is ideal for fresh eating, canning, and drying. The tree is self-fertile and has a good tolerance to late spring frosts. It requires 400–600 chilling hours, making it a reliable option for areas with shorter, less intense winters.
