Answer 1

It seems that you have, already, identified it as far down as possible without genetic testing. Pinning down a cultivar can be next to impossible. If you know where the tree came from, then you can ask that nursery. They may have more information.

What I can do is point you to a collection of articles that will help you to care for the tree:
