    I suspect your tree has changed and that you are either seeing fruit or that the buds have dropped. Here's some info for you that should help:

    I don't think that this would be a suitable choice for the area. Unfortunately, you will need something specialized for a climate that cold.

    My advice would be to look for any cultivar with the words "Canada" or "Canadian" in it. There are many on the market that are bred to withstand the cold in your area. Though the Lapins was developed in BC, it cannot withstand temperatures much colder than that.

    One that I KNOW will do very well in your area will be one known as "Romeo". This little specimen is hardy down to zone 2!
