When planting apple trees in a summer cottage or in a garden, you should select varieties so that there are fresh apples in summer, early autumn, and closer to winter. Not capricious, giving very tasty fruits in the middle of summer, is the apple variety Paper, which is grown by both farmers and novice gardeners.

Breeding history of the variety

The summer variety Bumazhnoe was developed almost 100 years ago. Breeders Lavrik and Zhmurko worked on its breeding, whose goal was to create an apple species that ripens quickly in the short summer season. The seeds of the Borovinka variety were used for the basis of the new species.

Description of the variety

Apple-tree Paper is a medium-sized tree, reaching a height of 3-6 meters, endowed with a rounded crown of moderate density. The tree has a well-developed root system, and the branches are very thin and fragile, therefore, during periods of high yields, they sometimes break off under the weight of the fruit.

Features, pros and cons

Apple tree Paper is a tree that gardeners often grow on their plots. The variety is popular due to its many features:

  • immunity to disease;
  • high winter hardiness;
  • unpretentious care;
  • quick survival in different soils;
  • good yield indicators.

The disadvantages of the fruit crop include the fragility of the branches, low keeping quality (up to 50-60 days) and the huge dimensions of the tree, which takes up a lot of space on the site.

Ripening and fruiting

Flowering begins at the end of the spring frost, and active fruiting is very extended, it occurs in the second half of August and lasts 3-4 weeks. The apple tree bears fruit annually, and the yield indicators only grow over the years.

Growing regions

Due to its high resistance to frost, heat and drought, the tree is able to quickly adapt and grow in any region of the country. In addition, the Paper apple tree is grown on the territory of Belarus and Ukraine. The tree bears fruit for 4-5 years of growth.

Yield

The yield of the variety is high. More than 80-90 kg of apples can be harvested from one mature tree per season. Yields may vary depending on climatic conditions. Manual control of the ovaries on the tree will help to stimulate a stable harvest (excess ones are removed).

Fruits and their taste

Medium-sized apples have an almost white color with a bright red blurred blush, a firm and smooth skin, delicate flesh and high juiciness. The mass of one fruit of the correct rounded shape is 60-100 g. The apples taste sweet and sour, and the sourness is pronounced. The fruit is remembered not only for its taste and juiciness, but also for the aroma that the tree exudes during the flowering period, as well as the apples themselves.

To obtain a bountiful harvest of fragrant apples, the garden must be periodically renewed by planting seedlings of productive and new varieties. The choice of an apple seedling must be approached with all responsibility, because low-quality planting material at best will not take root, and at worst it will die in the prime of years after numerous investments in its health and normal formation.

Growing features

To plant paper seedlings, you will need a carefully selected area, which must be dug up to improve air circulation, cleaned of weeds, loosened, fertilize, and provide moderate moisture. Suitable will be a fertile soil of a light loamy or slightly podzolic type.

An important aspect is the deep passage of groundwater, since stagnant water can negatively affect the root system of the seedling. The site should be well lit and closed from drafts and strong winds.

Planting seedlings is possible in early autumn (3-4 weeks before frost) or in spring after warming up the soil, but before bud break.

Planting apple trees is a very important, troublesome and responsible business. Its survival and full-fledged fruiting depends on the correct procedure. Before planting, you need to choose the right planting material, determine the location and prepare the soil.
A successful grafting helps to solve a whole range of problems, first of all: to get the varieties of interest and save space on the site. The vaccination technique itself is not so difficult and even a novice summer resident can master it. Vaccinations can be done during the entire growing season.
Along with top dressing and pruning necessary for apple trees, watering is also a significant contribution to the correct development of the culture, and therefore to a high yield. Improper watering, carried out inopportunely, without enough water, can bring big trouble to the fruit tree.

Pollination

This apple variety needs cross-pollination, therefore, apple trees with a flowering period coinciding with Paper should be grown on the site - Autumn striped, Melba, Antonovka ordinary.

Top dressing

Correct care involves feeding. In the autumn period, potassium-phosphate fertilizers are applied for digging, and in the spring, before bud break, nitrogen substances will need to be added.

An important point in caring for an apple tree in the open field is feeding and fertilizing. Top dressing of apple trees begins in early spring and ends in late autumn. Lack of nutrition leads not only to a decrease in the quality and quantity of the crop, but also reduces the immunity of the tree, making it more vulnerable to pests and diseases. And with the autumn procedure, the tree will be able to lay more fruit buds, which will have a positive effect on the future harvest.

Frost resistance

The variety is quite frost-resistant, so low, high and prolonged frosts are not terrible for the tree. Trees are able to withstand temperatures down to -30-35 degrees, which will not affect development and fruiting. In case of prolonged frosts, it is necessary to insulate the trunk, the near-stem zone and the root system using mulching.

Despite the fact that apple trees are considered quite unpretentious plants, they still need proper autumn care. Timely preparation of trees for winter makes them more resistant to winter frosts, as well as increase future yields.

Diseases and pests

Due to its good immunity, the apple tree is not exposed to scab and powdery mildew, however, the immune system is weak to fruit rot. To prevent diseases and pests, it is recommended to carry out preventive actions - spraying. In addition, in regions with high humidity and dampness, it is necessary to monitor the condition of the crown throughout the season.

The apple tree is a popular fruit crop among gardeners. It can be found in many summer cottages. But at the same time, such trees are often affected by various diseases.It is very important to recognize the disease in time and carry out the necessary procedures for a speedy recovery. Otherwise, the fruits will be spoiled, and the tree itself may die altogether.

Fruiting of aging trees, as well as the quality of the harvest, decreases. Therefore, if the tree is aging and there is a need to replace it, you need to think about how to propagate the apple tree so as not to lose the variety. For reproduction of an apple tree, several methods are used: by seeds, layering, eyes and cloning (budding).
