Wild cherry, mahaleb cherry
Early July
The most widely cultivated cherry variety in Hungary. Its fruit quality meets diverse consumer preferences, benefiting both producers and consumers. Primarily intended for fresh consumption, it is also suitable for producing excellent cherry preserves, jams, concentrates, and juices.
The flesh has a sweet-sour flavor. Considered one of the tastiest cherry varieties, with high sugar content.
The fruit weighs 5–6 grams, with an average diameter of 22–24 mm depending on the tree. It is slightly flattened and spherical in shape. The skin is glossy dark red. The flesh is medium-firm to firm, blood-red, slightly juicy, with a harmonious flavor. The moderately long stem is strongly lanceolate. Fruits can be easily machine-harvested. Stones are large, with a flesh-to-stone ratio of 6–8%.
Self-pollinating.
Particularly good cold resistance. Sensitive to Monilia, leaf spot, and pests.
You can purchase seedlings of Cherry Firteška Firteš at our garden center in the nursery located at Gornjem Crnjelovu, Glavna 65a.
Upon collection of the goods (seedlings), the Agromedžik nursery no longer has the possibility of supervision or care, and therefore cannot provide any further guarantee. Since seedlings are living beings, it is not possible to give a guarantee even a day after they leave the nursery. We cannot influence their maintenance and care, and consequently their further growth and development.
Our plants regularly undergo phytosanitary and vegetative inspections, therefore we do not have diseased or infected plants.
Planting is done from late October to mid-April, avoiding periods of frost and drought.
Trim the roots, then the branches into 3 to 4 rings. At the beginning of March, cut the seedlings to a height of 80 - 120 cm.
Before planting, soak the plant in water for at least 2 - 3 hours.
Dig a hole, in the previously prepared soil, measuring 60 x 60 x 50 cm for the soil (40 x 40 x 40 cm) so that the roots and part of the stem are well placed, taking care that the grafting point is outside the soil.
Place the plant in the hole and cover it with dry soil, gently press it down so that it gets well between the roots.
Fertilizer and seedling roots must not be in direct contact.
Pour with 20-30 liters of water. During periods of drought in the first year of planting, it is necessary to water young seedlings more often.
Containerized seedlings can be planted throughout the year.
*Applies to bare root seedlings.
