This is from the St. Lawrence Nursery website:

"Discovered growing near Edmonton, Alberta, by Dr. Ieuan Evans, Bali
has fruited after withstanding minus 43 degrees F. A vigorous grower
and precocious producer, yielding large (up to1 inch) fruit excellent
for pies, sauces, jams and even fresh eating. Five year old trees
(about 7 ft tall) have produced up to 10 gallons of fruit. Trees are
from tissue culture, which means there is no graft or rootstock to
worry about. Natural dwarf."
