The result of many years of work has been the emergence of a winter apple variety with decent taste and ability to long-term storage.
Pros and cons of the variety
The undoubted advantages of the apple variety include a high degree of resistance to difficult growing conditions, including those associated with the climatic features of the regions. The advantages of a fruit tree include the following points:
- regularity and stability of fruiting;
- long shelf life;
- resistance of leaves and fruits to scab;
- ability to withstand low temperatures;
- special taste characteristics.
Apples of the Memory Syubarova variety must be removed from the tree on time. With a delay, darkening of the pulp in the heart area may be observed, which negatively affects the taste of the fruits and the quality of their storage.
Specifications
The apple tree in Memory of Syubarova belongs to the late-ripening species, the fruits are used for long-term storage and fresh consumption during the period of insufficient fresh fruit... Subject to proper conditions, fruits are able to maintain their taste and appearance until May.

In the spring, it is required to form a crown by cutting the crown at a height of 80 cm.The distance between the lateral branches is not less than 50 cm. The cut ends should give lateral branches, which promotes plant rejuvenation and improves bud formation.
The frequency of fruiting
The apple tree is grown on seed and dwarf rootstock. The time of the beginning of the yield depends on the chosen method. In the first option, the first fruits are obtained in 5-6 years, in the second, the period is shorter and is 2-3 years. The crop is formed according to a mixed scheme, which allows constant fruiting.
Yield
The average size of the fruit reaches an average weight of 135 to 140 g. When testing the variety and identifying the characteristics of its fruiting, the average yield was 190 c / ha.
Tasting assessment
