Red-sided pear was bred for cultivation in regions of risky agriculture - its frost resistance (up to -32 degrees Celsius) and the possibility of ripening in a short summer were the goal of breeding work. The universal purpose of the fruits allows not only eating them fresh, but also cooking jam, preserves, compotes, and drying.

Breeding history

The authorship in the appearance of the variety belongs to the breeders E. A. Falkenberg, M. A. Mazunin, V. I. Putyatin from the Federal Agrarian Research Center of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Appeared when crossing the varieties Tenderness and Zheltoplodnaya. The variety was registered in the State Register of Breeding Achievements in 2002.

Description of the variety

A medium-sized, spreading tree reaches 4 meters in height. It grows quickly, in the first 5–6 years it almost completely reaches the height of an adult tree. The dense crown has a rounded shape, the ends of the branches are bent upward. Large light green leaves of an elongated shape have a matte corrugated surface, a top twisted with a screw and small denticles at the edges. Thick, uneven shoots are covered with brown, scaly bark. The tree blooms in late May, covered with large white-pink flowers with oval petals. The pear bears fruit on complex ringlets, spear, fruit twigs, sometimes at the ends of growth shoots.

Advantages of Krasnobokaya pear: frost resistance, excellent yield, ability to long-term storage, unpretentiousness in growing and care, high resistance to traditional diseases, good market yield, possibility of transportability, shelf life up to 4 months.

Cons of the variety - tendency to shedding, tart taste in the first days after removal.

Fruit characteristics

Large (150-180 g) fruits are yellow-green with a crimson barrel, attached to a thick, curved, long stalk.

Taste qualities

Fruit tasting score 4.5. White fine-grained pulp is full of juice, has a pleasant sweet taste with a piquant acidity and strong aroma. The delicate skin of the fruit is thin, oily and pleasant to the touch.

Ripening and fruiting

The pear belongs to the early-growing varieties - a stable annual fruiting begins at 5-7 years. Harvesting begins at the end of September.

Ripening of pears begins in the second half of summer and lasts until mid-autumn. To keep the pears fresh and tasty until winter, harvesting takes into account the characteristics of the variety, the ripening time and the weather conditions in the region.

Yield

The yield is high - an average of 105 kg / ha.

Growing regions

The variety is intended for cultivation in the cold regions of Russia - Siberia, the Urals.

Self-fertility and the need for pollinators

To obtain consistently high yields nearby, pollinating varieties (Powislaya, Myth, Severyanka) with the same flowering and fruiting periods are needed. The distance to the pollinators should not exceed 10 meters.

Landing

The place for the Red-sided is chosen sunny, with protection from northern winds and strong drafts. High fences or buildings should not be closer than 4 meters, so as not to shade the plant. The distance between trees is at least 3.5 m.Groundwater contributes to decay and subsequent death of the root system, so their maximum height should not exceed 2–2.5 m.

For a seedling in advance (in autumn or spring, 2 weeks before planting), prepare a planting pit with dimensions of 70x100 cm.The removed fertile layer is enriched with organic matter (humus, compost, bird droppings), river sand, 0.3 kg of superphosphate are added. A peg-shaped support is installed at the bottom, a drainage layer is laid using pebbles, gravel of medium and fine fractions, broken brick, chopped branches and even crumpled cans. Pour the enriched soil mixture with a mound on top. After that, the pit is covered with polyethylene and left in this form until planting.

When planting a seedling, you need to carefully spread the roots over the surface of an earthen hill, then fall asleep, compacting the soil well. A thin stem is tied to a support, a protective ring-mound is organized around the trunk circle, watered with 20 liters of water and mulched. Long branches are cut by a third.

In order for the pears to be tasty and of high quality, and the yields to be consistently high, you need to responsibly approach the planting of a fruit tree. When planting a pear, you need to take into account many factors: correctly determine the timing, choose the right place, pay attention to the preparation of the planting pit.
Pear grafting is a simple and exciting procedure, but it requires accuracy and adherence to a number of rules. First of all, you need to take care of the selection and procurement of inoculation material, understand the timing and methods of vaccination. An important point is also the choice of the rootstock, on the quality of which the result of the entire event and future fruiting will directly depend.

Growing and care

Further care of the plant consists in the formation of a crown, sanitary pruning, when weak, diseased, dried shoots are removed in spring and autumn. The first formative pruning is carried out 4 or 5 years after planting in early spring, immediately after the snow melts. Rejuvenating pruning is performed much less frequently - every 6-7 years. The measure consists in removing old shoots that excessively thicken the crown, but at the same time pruning of no more than 25% of the total mass is possible.

Watering is carried out 4 times a season: before flowering, during the budding period, in the middle of summer (in drought they are watered more often), autumn water-charging abundant watering - 60 liters per square meter. This measure makes the wood more resilient and increases its frost resistance. The best watering method is the sprinkler method.

Top dressing is necessary in the form of mineral and organic substances. Organic matter is brought in during the autumn digging about once every 3-4 years. This is 20-30 kg of manure, compost or humus. As for mineral fertilizers, in the spring nitrogen substances are needed to help build up the vegetative mass. During the budding period, complex fertilizers will be needed specifically for fruit trees. The pear responds gratefully to sowing in the near-stem circles of green manure. They also serve as the basis for subsequent mulching.

Despite the declared frost resistance of the variety, young plants need additional shelter in the first 2-3 years. The trunks should be covered with pine or spruce spruce branches. In the absence of such, you can use burlap. Hay or straw promotes the appearance of mice, and this is almost guaranteed death of the plant, since rodents love to feast on the tender bark in winter. An adult tree is prepared for wintering using a different technology.

The surface of the earth is cleaned of litter (leaves, fruits) and garden debris. The trunks and a third of the length of the lower branches are whitewashed with a mixture of lime (2 kg), copper sulfate (0.3 kg) and powdered clay (1 kg), which also increases the chances of a successful wintering and saves from rodents. The near-trunk circle is dug up to introduce organic matter and destroy the entrenched pests wintering in the ground. The dug area is mulched with sawdust or peat.It is important to remember that in early spring the mulch layer must be removed to avoid rotting and overheating of the root system.

If a gardener wants to propagate a pear with a scion, then a seedling of the Ussuri pear can be used as a rootstock.

In order for a pear to grow correctly and give high yields, its branches must be cut off in time. Pruning can be done in both spring and fall. Depending on the age of the tree and the goals set, pruning can be: sanitary, thinning, shaping, stimulating, rejuvenating.
Feeding pears is a must-have procedure that cannot be ignored. Experienced gardeners recommend applying the first fertilizers two years after planting the tree. The process is divided into 3 main stages, which are determined by the timing of ripening, flowering and fruiting of the pear.
There are two ways to grow a pear seedling - vegetative and by seed. The first method is the most common, including propagation by cuttings, air layers, seedling buds. Seeds are grown less often, since in order to get a bountiful harvest with good taste of the fruit, the seedling will need to be grafted.

Disease and pest resistance

The variety has excellent indicators of resistance to scab, as well as to pests, for example, it is not afraid of the pear gall mite.

Like any other fruit trees, the pear needs protection from various diseases and pests. When planting a pear on your site, you need to know in advance what diseases you should beware of. To successfully carry out the struggle, it is necessary first to correctly identify the cause of the problem. It is important to distinguish signs of disease from manifestations of the presence of insects, mites, caterpillars and other types of pests.

Resistance to soil and climatic conditions

Bred specifically for cold regions, Krasnobokaya perfectly tolerates severe frosts down to -30 degrees.
