The best late summer varieties of apple trees

The apple tree is the most common fruit crop, adapting to various conditions, which is why it attracts gardeners. The popularity is due to the fact that apples are on the tables almost all year round: in summer - summer varieties, after - autumn ones, and with the onset of cold weather, winter varieties ripen in the cellar.

Growing and features of summer apple trees

The division of apple trees into groups is primarily associated with the timing of consumption. All varieties with a summer ripening period are subdivided into:

• early summer (fruits ripen in the first half of July);
• summer (fruits are poured from July 15 to August 10);
• late summer (mass ripening of the crop falls on August 10-25).

Summer varieties will delight those who like to feast on apples until August

Summer apple varieties are most often used fresh. The fruits are not subject to long-term storage, even in the conditions of the vegetable box of the refrigerator, the shelf life of apples is from a week to a month.

When planting, it is necessary to take into account the location of apple trees of various types, since due to overlapping flowering times, cross-pollination can occur, which can lead to a loss of the qualities of both apple trees. The method of cross-pollination is used by breeders in the process of breeding new varieties. Thus, summer varieties are in extreme cases placed near winter ones, but they are carefully protected from varieties of autumn ripening.

A distinctive feature of "summer" apple trees is their increased winter hardiness, which is due to the early ripening of fruits. Giving a harvest in July - August, plants by the end of the season have time to prepare for unfavorable winter conditions, while winter or autumn varieties are much more afraid of frost. But it should be canceled that in summer varieties, the percentage of bud damage by recurrent spring frosts ranges from 42 to 98, since at the time of the temperature drop they were in a more developed state.

Summer varieties of apple trees

Apple trees with early ripening are very popular with gardeners. You don't have to wait until autumn to enjoy juicy apples.

• Central Black Earth;

• East Siberian.

The tree is medium-sized, the maximum growth rate is observed in the first 7–8 years. With proper care, the lifespan of one tree is 40–45 years... Young plants have pyramidal crowns; over the years they are rounded. The leaves resemble “boats” - they are folded along the central vein, and the edges are raised, the underside of the leaf is tomentose.

The flowers are whitish-pink, fragrant, the plant itself is cross-pollinated. The best pollinating varieties: Anise scarlet, Borovinka, Grushovka Moscow. Apples The papirovka is not large, peculiar ribs are visible on the surface of the fruit. The skin of a ripe apple is green with a yellowish tinge, smooth, with a slight touch of wax.

Gardeners reviews

Summer 1-2 apple trees are enough, they do not lie and ripen en masse. Plant 3-4 varieties on one apple tree and above the roof. In my opinion, not many are suitable for our region. Of those close to Papirovka and White filling - White Astrakhan, more delicious. Susleipskoe is closer to Grushovka, but less sour. Early autumn - Velvet. The varieties are rare, I have grown by grafting for many years.

In terms of pulp, Melba is not pink at all, it is green-red on the outside and white on the inside. The variety is excellent, if for food in the summer and for juice, then it is almost ideal. The only thing is that the scab hits him slightly, but I would not say that it is just horror-horror. I also remember that Orlovim was advised here at one time - he is kind of like Melba, but resistant to scab and more winter-hardy. True, I myself have not tried it (also while in search, I plan to plant this fall-spring), but judging by the reviews, it seems like a good variety.

Summer varieties of apples are a godsend for those who like to feast on fresh fruits only plucked from the branches. In addition, all these varieties are suitable for conservation. Juicy apples saturated with the warm sun are perfect for jams, jams and various pie fillings.

The sweetest apple trees have fruits that are high in a variety of vitamins and minerals, they useful for baby and diet food.

The sweetest varieties of apple trees

The taste of apples determines the sugar and acid content. Apples of the same variety in different climatic zones may have different sugar content.

In warm, sunny regions, apples store more sugar. Thus, southern apples contain up to 10 - 11 percent sugar, while in the middle lane - 8 - 9 percent.

But also some Central Russian apple trees have an increased sugar content up to 12.5 percent.

Attention! The sweetness of apples is reflected not only in the sugar content, but also in the amount of acid. And not even the sugar and acid content determines the sweetness of the apple, but their ratio, which is called the sugar-acid ratio.

For dessert apples, the coefficient is in the range from 20 to 34, for sweet apples - above 35.

Among sweet-fruited trees, there are both old and promising varieties of modern selection. Apples of old varieties from the people are often smallish, slightly fresh, and apple trees are distinguished by their tallness and frequency of fruiting.

To get stable apple yields, you need not only to choose good varieties, but also know a few rules for caring for apple trees:

1. Correct planting of the seedling, including the location of the grafting site at soil level;
2. Regular watering and mandatory feeding of seedlings, especially while the trees are still young;
3. Formative and growth-regulating pruning of trees;
4. In the presence of a weak annual growth, it is necessary to perform anti-aging pruning, which stimulates the development of young shoots;
5. In the first post-planting years, it is necessary to regulate the amount of ovary and fruits in order to avoid overloading the seedlings with the crop, thus eliminating the depletion of immature trees;
6. For better pollination and setting of apples, have pollinating varieties on the site, i.e. apple trees of the same ripening period;
7. Timely fight against diseases and pests with yields of tasty and healthy apples.
