The best varieties of Finnish apple trees

For many years the apple tree confidently occupies a leading position among the cultivated fruit crops in the North-West of Russia:

• She left only 20% for other crops;
• About 500 varieties of apple trees;
• More than 45 of them are zoned.

This despite the fact that the climate cannot be called ideal for its growth. And getting good fruits.

Judge for yourself:

• Severe frosts alternate with thaws;
• Peat soils, wetlands. The fertile layer in many places does not even reach 20-30 cm;
• Marine presence and humidity.

All this and puts forward increased requirements for various varieties. The temptation to have popular large-fruited and tasty varieties does the trick.

Just take a look at the catalogs of nurseries. What they will not offer. And cherries are not a curiosity. You can't surprise with grapes. Not to mention the apple tree.

general characteristics

Yet gardeners have to take local conditions into account. In order not to be upset about failures and spent funds later. And start anew in 5-10 years. That's pay attention:

• For winter hardiness;
• The ability to resist disease. Especially fungal diseases. Especially scab;
• Early frosts make you pay attention to varieties that have time to ripen by that time.

And you will also consider:

• Tree type:
  • Height;
  • Width;
  • Dense or sparse crown;
  • What does it look like - a pyramid, a ball or an oval;
  • Plant Antonovka, and she will take half of the site.

I noticed it myself! If you plant it on the recommendation, it seems that you leave a lot of space between the seedlings. And when you grew up, you remember the kind words of your advisers.

• Apple type:
  • The size;
  • Coloring;
  • Even shades and plaque.
• Fruit flavor:
  • Sweetness;
  • Aroma;
  • Dessert or not.

• How long to wait for the first harvest:
  • Maybe you won't have the patience to wait 7-8 years.
• Can the tree itself be pollinated? Or is the presence of other varieties of apple trees growing nearby? And what kind;
• And how many containers to prepare for the harvest. Cans and bottles, including:
  • Is it not necessary to have a place in the market for their implementation?

We will consider the specific best varieties of apple trees below.

It is interesting to read reviews of gardeners. And not dry academic assessments of specialists. Indeed, according to some experts, it is necessary to get rid of some old varieties. Antonovka, Korobovka, Moscow Grushovka, White filling, they need to be changed. And they are in good demand. I also have Borovinka.New items are attracting attention. I would like to grow both the Silver Hoof and the Belarusian Raspberry. And others. But mine is enough for me.

I have been renovating my garden for several years. But from the old ones I still leave the White filling and Glory to the winners. Iyulskoe Chernenko, Antey, Krasa Sverdlovsk complemented the assortment very well. Interesting varieties are Baltic and Finnish. I will get acquainted in more detail. Nurseries offer. But advice from experts is needed. Who they have not for the first year.

And for several more years I have been working on columnar apple trees in my area. There is a lot of advertising. The cost is decent. But so far they cannot replace our reliable ones - White filling, Zvezdochka, Streyfling, Bogatyr. They look beautiful. And the taste is not very happy. Maybe I'm in a hurry with conclusions? But the columnar ones bear fruit earlier. A dozen apples are just for a change.

Two varieties of the Ural collection delighted me. Its winter hardiness, productivity. Beauty of Sverdlovsk and Silver Hoof. I advise others to land at their place. You will not regret.

Disease resistance

It is very difficult for the tree itself to cope with diseases and pests. There are many of them.Look at the abandoned trees. There is a tree, but no fruit. I planted it - and forgot it not to the apple tree. Care is needed. Including at least a minimum amount of fungicide and insecticide treatments. Verified. Reliable.

• Don't even tell the farmer about it. Come on every year. And more.

I want you to take note for yourself:

• Chasing a larger crop can lead to periodic fruiting. I mean crop overload;

Conclusion

• Not so long ago, many thought to plant just an apple tree;
• Now they are breaking their heads - what varieties of apple trees are better to plant in the Leningrad region?
• Nurseries can also offer closed-root systems;
• Study well their characteristics and adaptability to your specific place of residence.

For cultivation in the Leningrad region, it is recommended to choose varieties that are distinguished by fast ripening of fruits, and have also successfully passed the test for frost resistance. Along with the old tested varieties, novelties of recent years, resistant to diseases and pests, have proven themselves well here. Their range of flavors is diverse - from sweet apples with a honey taste to the classic sour Antonovka.

Growing conditions for apple trees in the Northwest

The North-West region, including the Leningrad region, is often called the zone of risky farming. The conditions here are not good for most horticultural crops. The harsh climate and soil poverty affect the quantity and quality of the crop. It should also be borne in mind that in many places there is a high level of groundwater.

Apple trees in the Leningrad region begin to bloom at the end of May with an interval of several days - from 3 to 7, depending on the variety. Flowering can last up to 15 days; the cooler the spring, the longer this period. Some trees bear fruit after a year; longer breaks are possible. This is due to unfavorable weather conditions (severe frosts, dry summers) and depleted soil.

Apple blossoms in the northern regions begin at the end of May and can last for two weeks.

How to choose an apple tree for the northern regions

When choosing apple trees for planting, pay attention to characteristics such as:

• tree height;
• early maturity;
• winter hardiness;
• disease resistance;
• ripening terms;
• taste of fruits;
• the frequency of fruiting.

Tall apple trees can reach a height of 15 meters. But as a rule, the tree grows 5-7 meters, and the roots go three and a half meters into the ground. Vigorous apple trees do not tolerate stagnant water on heavy soils, they are adversely affected by the high standing of groundwater. In conditions of waterlogging, the top begins to dry out, and the tree dies.

Medium-sized apple trees (half-dwarfs) do not grow higher than 3.5 meters, low (dwarfs) do not exceed three meters in height. The roots of these trees are located close to the surface of the earth. The lumpy root system of "dwarfs" and "semi-dwarfs" is best suited for planting in the Leningrad region.

Low-growing apple trees are better than others for growing in the Leningrad region

When choosing a variety, be guided by the following recommendations:

• Disease resistant varieties will require less effort from the grower when caring for apple trees.
• Despite the fact that tall apple trees retain the ability to bear fruit longer, in the northern and eastern regions of the Leningrad region, preference should be given to apple trees grafted onto a dwarf rootstock.
• For the Leningrad Region, with its rather harsh climatic conditions, frost resistance is one of the most important characteristics.
• The more early maturity a variety has, the higher the likelihood of high yields. Fruiting 3-4 years after planting is a good indicator. Apple trees grafted onto a dwarf rootstock also begin to bear fruit earlier. Apple varieties with medium-sized fruits almost all have a high rate of maturity.

The highest resistance to scab was observed in triploid apple varieties (with a triple set of chromosomes). They are distinguished by early maturity, early fruiting, produce large apples with a high content of vitamin C. The disadvantage of these varieties is defective pollen, which reduces the percentage of fruit setting.

The best varieties for the Leningrad region

Not all varieties of apple trees can show their qualities in a cool and humid climate. Due to the short summer in the Leningrad Region, there is a danger that winter apples will not have time to ripen on the tree. Therefore, give preference to summer and autumn apple trees, adding to them zoned varieties of late ripening.

If you plant summer, autumn and winter varieties in the garden, the likelihood of pollination of apple trees will be much higher.

Summer (early) apple trees

Summer apples ripen in July - August. They are sweeter than the fruits of later varieties, but they have a friable flesh. They can be eaten immediately, but these apples cannot be stored for a long time. The fruits retain their presentation for no more than a month after harvest.

Apples grown in the Leningrad Region have a higher vitamin C content compared to fruits grown in the southern regions.

Features of growing apple trees in the Leningrad region

When choosing a place for an apple tree, pay attention to the climatic conditions and soil characteristics of the garden plot. Apple trees do not like acidic soil and do not tolerate the close location of groundwater. For most areas of the Leningrad region, preference should be given to low-growing seedlings grafted on a winter-hardy rootstock. Tall apple trees can be planted using special technologies.

Planting an apple tree

Planting an apple tree is best done in early spring, in late April - early May. A place for seedlings is prepared in the fall, choosing for it a well-lit area of ​​the garden protected from the wind. In the spring, it is recommended to purchase seedlings with a closed root system.

Next, we will consider the features of planting an apple tree on soils of different compositions:

• If heavy loam or clay prevails on the site, the apple tree is planted on a hill.

  If clay prevails on the site, you need to plant an apple tree sapling on a hill

• If there is sandy soil on the site, you need to dig a planting hole 80x80x80 cm, lay drainage on the bottom (pieces of brick, a layer of stones), place sphagnum moss on top, and then fill the hole with fertile soil (add compost, humus).

  When planting an apple tree in sandy soil, you need to prepare a hole

• On light loams and sandy loams, the apple tree should be planted on a flat surface. To do this, remove the top layer, turn it over with the turf upward and lay it around the seat.

  On light soils, instead of a planting pit, a sod curb is made

General recommendations for all sites:

1. When planting, ash (2 glasses) is added to the hole and a bucket of water is poured.
2. The seedling is placed so that the grafting site is 2 cm above the ground, and carefully sprinkled with fertile soil.

How to care for an apple tree

Caring for an apple tree in the Leningrad region includes the usual steps:

• watering;
• pruning;
• top dressing;
• fight against diseases and pests;
• preparation for winter.

There is a sufficient amount of rainfall in the region, and only in dry summers do apple trees need additional watering. Tree pruning and pest and disease control is carried out according to general rules.

Most of the territory is dominated by poor soil, so the trees need regular feeding. Mulching the trunk circle with organic fertilizers has a positive effect on the growth and development of apple trees. In the fall, it is useful to bring ash under the crown (2-3 glasses).

Particular attention should be paid to preparing plants for winter. At the end of the season, the following works are carried out:

1. To protect the root system of low-growing apple trees from frost, the trunk circles must be mulched with peat.

   To protect the root system, the trunks should be mulched with peat.

2. To protect the trunk from rodents and protect the tree from frost, spruce branches can be used.

   To protect against rodents, the trunk of the apple tree is covered with spruce branches

In the gardens of the Leningrad Region, along with domestic apple trees, gardeners grow Canadian and American varieties. Such varieties as Melba, Welsey, Mantet, Lobo, Spartak and others are especially popular. But the apple trees of our northern neighbor Finland are little known to our gardeners, although they may be of practical interest. Finland is close to ours in terms of its soil and climatic conditions.

In the collection of the Pavlovsk experimental station VIR there is an old Finnish apple variety Huwitus... Summer variety with small fruits, weighing 44-58 g, completely colored with a striped carmine-red blush. The pulp is sweet and sour with a weak aroma. The variety, annually yielding up to 50 kg of fruit per tree, is winter-hardy, with medium resistance to scab.

Apple has been breeding in Finland since 1958. 30 combinations of crosses with 17 varieties have been carried out. The starting material was winter-hardy varieties, such as Antonovka, Khuvitus, Kaneli, Atlas. To improve the taste of the fruit, we used Melbu, Lobo, yellow Calvil, Astrakhan, etc.... As a result, 10756 seedlings were obtained. In the cold winter of 1965-1966, 7% of the hybrid material of apple trees died.

Then, in 1981, several varieties of apple were obtained. Pirya, an early summer variety, the fruits ripen at the end of August and are stored for 2-3 weeks. Mikey, an early autumn variety, the fruits ripen in mid-September and are stored for about a month. Jasper, late autumn variety, fruits ripen at the end of September and are stored until mid-November. Itself, late autumn variety, fruits ripen in mid-September and are stored until mid-November. The fruits of these varieties are distinguished by a beautiful bright color and good taste.

In 1996-1999 Finnish breeders have obtained interesting varieties of apple trees. Autumn varieties Konsta, Sandra, Pekka, Kheta, Juuso, which are distinguished by high productivity, winter hardiness, large size and good taste of elegant fruits.

The variety Pekka the fruits are burgundy, almost black, which makes this apple tree very original.

It was interesting for us to check and test new Finnish apple varieties in the conditions of the Leningrad region. To this end, we have entered into a long-term scientific agreement with Professor Risto Tahvonen, director of the Horticultural Institute in Pikkno. The rector of the Dormition courtyard of Optina Pustyn in St. Petersburg, Hieromonk Rostislav, allocated a plot for a garden located on the territory of the subsidiary farm of the courtyard in the Vyborg region of the Karelian Isthmus. The garden was founded in the spring of 2000, and this year it has already yielded its first fruits. The first harvest of Finnish varieties of fruits was presented at the X World Fair "Russian Farmer". The study of Finnish apple varieties in the conditions of our region will make it possible to identify the most valuable samples for growing them in the orchards of the north-western region of Russia.
