What sort of pear plant in the suburbs
Pear tree is a durable tree. Can grow and bear fruit up to 50 years. Therefore, before planting, you need to determine the grade. In the suburbs - in different regions of the region - you can plant different varieties.
Classification of Species
There are pears early, middle and late. On the strength of growth, trees are subdivided into vigorous, medium and feeble. Pear differs from apple trees with greater thermophilic, light-loving, less winter hardiness and self-fertility. But it is more drought-resistant than an apple tree. In the high humidity of the soil only young trees are needed. To ensure that the pear is guaranteed to be fruitful, at least two pear trees of different varieties must be planted at the site, which bloom simultaneously. This is for the best - if you plant an early and late variety, you can have pears all summer and fall, eat their fruits fresh, canned and stored for winter storage.Varieties for the Moscow region
Pears, specially zoned for northernregions of the Moscow region, are resistant to frosts up to -38 ° C. The most resistant to frost are the varieties "Bessemyanka" (late) and "Tonkovetka" (early). Fruits of the first ripen in the summer, the second - in the autumn. They are excellent pollinators for each other, so in the northern regions of the Moscow region it is good to plant these two varieties simultaneously in one plot. For other regions of the Moscow region, there are also specially cultivated varieties. Only winter varieties can be stored throughout the winter: - "Burakovka" - "Ilya Muromets" - "Byelorussian late" .Ousnie even in the most suitable storage will lie maximum until the New Year: - "In memory of Yakovlev" - "Svetlyanka" - " Muscovite "-" The Moscow Faith "- Veles" - "Thumbelina" - "Faithful" - "Autumn Suslova" - "Elegant Efimova" - "Chernenko's Beauty". Early summer grades: - "Children's" - "Prominent" - "Skorospelka from Michurinsk" - "Marble" - "Dessert Rossoshanskaya" - "Petrovskaya" - "Chizhevskaya" - "Rogneda" - "Lira".Planting a pear
Pear seedlings in the suburbs are best planted in the spring,not later than the last decade of April, since the young trees planted in autumn will not have time to grow stronger in the winter and may freeze in the spring. The highly resistant varieties can be planted in autumn - from September to mid-October. After planting, the trunks should be covered with a layer of 10 cm, to protect the root system of the young seedling from freezing. All varieties bred for the Moscow region bear fruit annually (unlike apple trees, which can yield only once every two or even three years). By the number of fruits - from an adult pear can be collected from 80 to 110 kg. According to the taste qualities of all the above varieties, the best are "Thumbelina", "Chizhevskaya", "Lada", "Veles", "Belarusian late".
