Hybrids and cherries hybrid

Beginning gardeners may not even know about the existence of cerafadus, but people are experienced in these matters in the course that once Michurin crossed two species of plants and received a hybrid of bird cherry "Maaka" and cherry varieties "Ideal". This was done for the purpose of planting cherries with winter hardy properties of bird cherry.

The name of the hybrids came from the Latin names of cherries (cerasus) and bird cherries (padus). So, if the cherry blossoms are pollinated by pollen of bird cherry, the word tserapadus turns out, if on the contrary, the paddocker.

Cherry and cherry hybrid - the best varieties

Breeders continued to search for the perfect combination of different varieties of cherries and bird cherries, as a result, several varieties were obtained:

  1. "Novella" - a universal variety, has increased winter hardiness of the kidneys and flowers, as well as resistance to coccomicosis. It is partly a self-fertilizing variety, the ripening period is mid-term. Fruits have a mass of up to 5 grams, almost black, yield from one tree is 15 kg.
  2. "Rusinka" is distinguished by the winter hardiness of the kidneys and flowers, it is completely self-fertilizing, which ensures its annual fruiting. Yield per tree is 8-10 kg. Ripening later. The fruit itself is not very large - up to 3 cm, sour-sweet to taste, quite suitable for eating in raw form, but for the most part they are recycled.
  3. "Padocerus-M" is a cherry-cherry hybrid, which served as the source for the cultivation of the cherry variety "Almaz", which then became the ancestor of the famous "Kharitonovskaya" variety. As a result of further work of selection experts, cherry varieties "Crown", "Firebird", "Aksamit" became.

Planting and caring for a bird cherry hybrid

Care for a hybrid of cherries and cherry blossoms with ceradagus almost does not differ from cherry care . They do not impose special requirements on the conditions of growth, and absolutely do not need additional protective measures against fungal diseases.

Planting of hybrids is done by cuttings, as reproduction by seeds (bones) does not give the expected result due to the fact that there is a splitting of parental traits, which leads to the manifestation of much worse signs than parental plants.

Planting cuttings should be done on a loose mound to avoid excessive overmoistening and deep cold. It is necessary to provide a heat insulation cushion and drainage: gravel, wood waste. Begin work on the landing can be with the onset of stable heat, when the earth is already quite warm.
