Apple tree Autumn gift can thank gardeners with very attractive fruits. But a positive result, as always, is achieved only with careful adherence to the recommendations. You also need to know exactly what can (and cannot) be achieved.

Breeding history of the variety

To obtain the apple tree Gift of Autumn, the older varieties were used - Borovinka and Zolotoe Greima. The breeding work was going on at the VNIIS named after V.I. Michurin. This type of culture has combined all the advantages of domestic and American apple trees. The gift of autumn is undergoing final state tests, testing it will be completed only in a few years, but the intermediate results are encouraging.

Description of the variety

Features, pros and cons

The variety belongs to the early-growing group. The crown of the tree is compact, close to a round shape. Its branches are moderately dense. Zoning is not over yet. No significant shortcomings have yet been identified.

Among the advantages are called:

  • high fertility;

  • the regularity of the appearance of apples;

  • attractive qualities of the fruits themselves;

  • minimal whimsicality;

  • universal purpose.

Ripening and fruiting

You can count on getting apples in early autumn. Under favorable conditions, removable maturity is reached by the first days of September. The first harvest is usually 4 years old. Partial self-fertility is noted. It doesn't take much effort to maintain a decent harvest.

Yield

A large harvest is achieved despite the small size of the trees themselves. During the growing season 140-160 kg of apples ripen. In good conditions, if you take care of the culture, you can raise this indicator by at least another 15%. With the help of regular feeding - up to 25%. Overloading branches is not allowed.

Fruits and their taste

The apples weigh from 140 to 180 g. They are slightly round and slightly flattened. The spread in size is small. The rind is firm and smooth, with an expressive shine. The surface is greenish-yellow in color.

The flesh of the Gift of Autumn is fawn. It is juicy. The sweet and sour taste is enjoyed by the vast majority of people. An expressive, pleasant aroma is also noted. If the fruit is cut, it will preserve its original appearance for a long time and will not darken.

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 gift of autumn is a medium-sized apple tree. Therefore, there are no special restrictions when choosing a place for landing. Rootstocks of various heights can be used for cultivating the variety. The plant needs well-lit areas. Shading leads to disease and even death of plantings.

It is imperative to ensure that the trees are well ventilated. It is advisable to avoid places where soil water rises above 2.5-2.6 m. The characteristics of the soil are not of great importance, however, acidified and saline places should be avoided.The holes are prepared in advance, about 3-4 weeks before disembarkation, but not earlier. The row spacing should be 4.5-5 m, the distance between individual apple trees 3.5-4 m.

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

Partial self-fertility means that you cannot rely on natural fertilization. To some extent, it works. But to obtain the highest quality harvests, the use of pollinators is imperative. They should be apple trees of a different grade. An important condition is predictably similar to the timing of flowering; spraying with syrup, removal of hives to the garden is encouraged.

Top dressing

In the autumn months, potash mixtures and superphosphate are introduced into the circle near the trunk. Sometimes they are replaced with organic fertilizers. But in any case, it is critically important to dig up the ground after feeding. In the spring, 2/3 of the norms of nitrogen fertilizers are applied before bud formation, the rest - as soon as flowering is completed. It is useful to put fertilizers not on the entire trunk circle, but on separate (each time replaced) areas - then the root system will develop fully.

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 can withstand cold temperatures down to -40 degrees. Therefore, in a significant part of the territory of Russia, shelter is not required during normal winter. Only when cultivating to the east of the Urals and beyond 50 degrees north latitude should an exception be made. On the territory of the Urals, to the south and west of it, problems usually do not arise. But you need to keep a close eye on the actual weather.

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

Like other new varieties, Autumn's Gift is less prone to scab infestation. The likelihood of damage by pests is also low. Nevertheless, it is very important to take care of the prevention of their invasions. For processing, drugs that have been well tested in practice are used. There are no special recommendations for their use for this particular variety.

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).
