The Persian apple tree is another confirmation that the Ural school of selection is achieving good results. It is not too tall, but fast-growing, tree. And therefore, gardeners need to know all the details about such a culture - what is its fertility, what is the taste, how to care for the plantings.

Breeding history of the variety

Work on the Persianka apple tree was carried out at the Sverdlovsk experimental station. The authorship of the selection belongs to P. A. Dibrova and L. A. Kotov. The varieties Kungurskoe pineapple and Peach, which have already proven themselves well, were taken as a basis. Variety tests were carried out in 1990. Therefore, we can say that although this is not an old, but already well-proven variety.

Description of the variety

The Persian apple tree has a spherical or oval crown. It is dominated by powerful, thick branches. Height can reach 6 m. The bark is colored in a dark brown tone. The formation of the crop occurs on the ringlets.

The leaf blades have a rough surface. Large flowers. They are colored white by default. The size of apples varies widely.

Features, pros and cons

The Persian apple tree is large-fruited. Its fruits are quite transportable. The consumer qualities of the crop deserve special attention. You can store apples for a long time. Another advantage is its excellent resistance to adverse weather conditions. The only downside is excessive exposure to scab.

Ripening and fruiting

The tree will not bear fruit too rhythmically. The Persian apple tree is partially self-fertile. It is required to plant it together with other trees of late varieties. Good options are:

  • famous Antonovka;
  • Pepin Saffron;
  • Skryhapel;
  • Slav.

In terms of ripening, the variety belongs to the winter group. Fruit ripeness for picking is reached by mid-September. In unfavorable weather conditions, it takes a little longer. The consumer period lasts until March. The first harvest occurs 2 or 3 years after budding; then fruiting will take place without much problem.

Growing regions

You can cultivate such an apple tree:

  • in the Urals;
  • in the Volga-Vyatka region;
  • throughout the territory of Western Siberia, except for the regions of the Far North;
  • in all areas with milder climates.

Yield

Irregularity in the formation of fruits leads to significant changes in this indicator. Usually the achieved figure is 100 kg per 1 apple tree. This does not even require any serious effort. With strict adherence to agrotechnical standards, a collection of 200 kg is also quite achievable. But you need to pay attention to the characteristics of the crop itself.

Fruits and their taste

Persian fruit has a universal purpose. They are characterized by a cream color. The cover color is thick carmine and a striped blush on the main part of the apple. There are ribs, but they are not too pronounced.

The weight of the apple can be 0.1-0.12 kg. It will be of medium size. The rind is very smooth. It is characterized by a slightly bluish waxy coating. The pulp is creamy, with a coarse-grained structure, it crunches a little when eaten.

An expressive aroma is typical for the Persian woman. The share of dry soluble substances reaches 16.8%.The sugar concentration reaches 12.1%. The keeping quality of fruits is up to 6 months. They can crumble only in windy weather; the tasting score in different cases varies from 3.8 to 4.5 points.

Store the harvested crop in a cool place. It is better to use cardboard boxes or wooden boxes for this. Apples are layered with soft paper. You can transport them completely calmly, using conventional technology. Despite the sugar content, the variety is healthy.

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

The landing of the Persian, according to some sources, can be done even in the calendar winter, but on condition that low temperatures will not harm the plant. The soil is not too fundamental. However, acidic soil is not suitable for apple trees. In extreme cases, a highly acidic area must be treated with lime.

More often than not, an extreme winter landing is undesirable. Instead, they resort to autumn or spring planting. The seedlings are required to be examined and all foreign inclusions and traces of diseases must be removed. It is necessary to plant an apple tree in spring only in completely thawed soil. The earth is compacted with a shovel - by no means with your feet; in the spring, the seedlings are watered twice a week, in the fall they practically do not need to be watered so that the plant has time to switch to winter mode.

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.

Top dressing

To feed the Persians, it is better to use complex fertilizers. They are introduced at a distance of 60 cm from the central conductor. In summer, it is recommended to focus on nitrogen compounds in order to activate the set of green mass. But in the middle of summer, it is better to switch to phosphorus and potassium mixtures, which increase the quality of fruits and their quantity, as well as improve the tree's immunity and its weather resistance.

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 plant is able to tolerate well even the conditions of a harsh winter. In this case, some freezing is still possible. However, the culture quickly recovers and eliminates all negative consequences. Therefore, the actual winter hardiness is very high.You should not be afraid of damage from cold, and only in a critical situation you need to come to the aid of trees.

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

The immunity of the Persian woman to the overwhelming majority of infections of fruit crops is at an average level. Defeat happens very often. It is especially likely against the background of mass diseases. Scab resistance is completely absent. Specific pests are not described - the danger is posed by the same insects as for other varieties.

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).

Review overview

The Persian apple tree is unpretentious. They even note that if she is affected by diseases, then she suffers little from them. All that is required is to correctly plant a plant, shape it and properly care for it. Periodic drops in yields are small. The preservation of the fruits is possible for a long time, while the nutrients contained in them are also preserved.
