Fruit
Cherry plum among Russian gardeners is much inferior in popularity to apple trees, pears, plums and cherries. Until recently, breeders also did not show much interest in this crop. Therefore, the range of varieties is rather limited. The most common can be called the Kuban comet. This variety very successfully combines simplicity in care and compactness of the tree with excellent taste of the fruit and high yield. Very good winter hardiness makes it possible to cultivate it practically throughout the entire territory of Russia.
A thermophilic crop - apricot, thanks to the efforts of breeders, can now be successfully grown even in the northern regions. The new variety under the sonorous name Saratov Ruby is distinguished by its rare resistance to subzero temperatures. Thanks to this quality, as well as resistance to diseases and annual fruiting, the variety becomes a promising crop for commercial cultivation.
During its long history, Triumph Severny apricot deserves many words of gratitude. After all, this variety can be found in cold regions, where it grows and bears fruit, unlike other thermophilic apricot varieties. The Northern Triumph is not afraid of frosts below 30 ° C, it has excellent immunity and it brings harvest even in the absence of pollinators.
