Juicy and unusually tasty fruits of the Fabulous pear are not in vain that attract the attention of both experienced gardeners and beginners. Gardeners are attracted by the unpretentiousness of the culture, as well as its powerful immune potential, which protects plants from many diseases.

Breeding history

This original crop was obtained in connection with a special order, according to which the scientists of the South Ural Research Institute of Horticulture and Potato Growing were tasked with raising a pear for cultivation in the northern latitudes of Russia. The team consisting of E.A. Falkenberg, M.A.Mazunin, V.I. The fabulous was included in the State Register in 2002.

The hybrid was so successful that it was intensively cultivated throughout the CIS, except perhaps in the extreme northern zones. The main purpose of the culture is fresh use and the production of drinks and juices.

Description of the variety

The culture is tall and fast-growing, often exceeding a height of 4 m. It has a thickened and narrow-pyramidal crown, which is formed by upright shoots of dark red shades. It also has its own peculiarity in the form of a slightly flaky bark. The upward growth of branches contributes to the economical arrangement of trees in garden areas.

The greenery of the trees consists of small, short-pointed and shiny leaves of a dark green tone. Late flowering of trees contributes to the successful avoidance of recurrent frosts and significantly reduces the risk of damage to flowers.

The trees are early-growing, take root relatively quickly, begin to bear fruit in just 4 years, constantly increasing the level of yield. Upon reaching the age of 10, they begin to bear fruit consistently and fully.

Fruits on the branches are kept for a long time (do not fall off) and do not deteriorate, but after removal they are stored for no more than 10 days. Another feature of the culture is that it is propagated on the seedlings of the Ussuri pear.

Pluses of culture:

  • good degree of frost resistance;
  • good drought resistance;
  • firm retention of fruits on the branches;
  • unforgettable taste and good juiciness;
  • immunity to disease and wrecking attacks.

At the same time, the specificity of cultivation and the peculiarities of climatic fluctuations do not have any effect on the level of resistance of the culture to diseases and pest attacks.

Minuses:

  • during transportation, pears are easily damaged;
  • short shelf life.

Fruit characteristics

At the stage of technical ripening, the fruits will be of a pronounced green color, and those that have ripened fully acquire a yellow-green color. Fruits of considerable size - about 180 g. There are specimens of a larger mass - up to 250 g. Pears are elastic, but not too hard, of the correct pear-shaped configuration.

The peel is compacted, dryish, of dull shades; during transportation, it does not provide the safety of the fruit. The white and juicy consistency has an average degree of density, it is easily damaged by small blows. Therefore, during transportation, pears are overlapped with a special material.

Subcutaneous spots are numerous, they are grayish, large in size, clearly visible. The peduncles are elongated, thick, curved.

For a longer preservation of pears, two options are used:

  • freezing whole or in crushed form;
  • bookmark in a special refrigerator (lie for 30 days).

Taste qualities

Pears leave the most pleasant spice in the aftertaste, which gives them a special piquancy. The aroma is not too intense, but a very sweet taste corrects the situation. Tasting score in points - 4.5.

Ripening and fruiting

Fruit is harvested from mid-August to 10 September. Apples reach consumer maturity in the second half of August.

Ripening of pears begins in the second half of summer and lasts until mid-autumn. In order to keep the pears fresh and tasty until winter, the characteristics of the variety, the ripening time and the weather conditions in the region are taken into account when harvesting.

Yield

The yield is average - up to 88 kg / ha.

Self-fertility and the need for pollinators

The advantage of culture is its self-fertility. However, to increase yields, it is advisable to resort to the possibilities of additional pollinators: Severyanka, Raduzhnaya and Krasuli.

Landing

A good time for planting seedlings is mid-autumn. If a spring disembarkation is planned, then it should be carried out before the start of sap flow.

A good place for seedlings requires:

  • deep groundwater;
  • favorable lighting;
  • even and unsalted soil;
  • clay layer at a depth of more than 3 m.

The culture is not particularly demanding on the soil composition, but in order to improve the yield, the soil should be fertilized. The trees will feel most comfortable on air-permeable light soil with the presence of humus.

If the seedlings have dried roots, then they are placed in a bucket of water. The immersion is completely performed if both leaves and stems begin to dry out.

The wells for planting are prepared in advance, additionally fertilizing them. Seedlings are planted carefully, avoiding damage to the roots.

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

The unpretentiousness of the culture does not diminish the need for measures to regularly take care of it. Proper and regular irrigation remains extremely important for the drought-resistant Skazochnaya pear. Moisture is especially relevant during the formation of buds. Irrigation is carried out in the course of drying of the upper layers of the soil. For mature trees, you need about 30-50 liters of liquid.

Formative pruning has a positive effect on the level of fruit formation. Pruning seedlings in the spring includes the following procedures:

  • shortening the barrel by 25%;
  • formation of productive rings.

Sanitary pruning is useful for adult trees. Young stock pruning is carried out at stable temperatures in the range of +5 degrees. Slices are carried out at 90 degrees, all of them are sealed with a special pitch.During the first 5 years, the correct formation of the crown is actual, and then only sanitary and thinning pruning will be needed (as necessary).

Regular feeding is applied 2 years after planting. In the spring, supplements with ammonium nitrate are useful, contributing to the intensification of development processes. In the fall, each tree needs rotted compost and phosphorus-potassium complexes.

In order for a pear to grow properly 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 culture has a powerful immune system, therefore it rarely suffers from spotting, fruit rot, scab and black cancer. But there are a number of diseases that will require preventive procedures:

  • against a sooty fungus use "Calypso", and in case of persistent infection - fungicide "Fitoverm";
  • in case of powdery mildew disease, the infected places are eliminated, and the remaining shoots are treated with a 1% solution of potassium permanganate;
  • to prevent brown spotting, autumn leaves are removed, and mineral fertilizers are added under the trees;
  • in order to prevent septoria in the period before flowering, spraying is carried out;
  • the traditional seasonal whitewashing of boles is performed;
  • the sections are treated with a composition of vitriol and lime.

Cultural attacks are extremely rare.

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 first necessary to correctly identify the cause of the problem. It is important to distinguish signs of disease from manifestations of the presence of insects, ticks, caterpillars and other types of pests.
