Late October
Medlar, also known as Adam's apple, is a true winter fruit with exceptional nutritional value. When the leaves start to fall and the first frosts arrive, it is the perfect time to enjoy medlar. Unharvested fruits can remain on the tree. For consumption, only the central part, without skin and seeds, is used. After frost, the fruits become sweeter and less astringent. Medlar fruits are primarily consumed fresh, but can also be used for various processing purposes. They are a natural remedy and a delicacy that can be used in many ways.
The flesh is very flavorful when softened, refreshing, sweet-sour, and aromatic.
Domestic medlar fruits are small to medium-sized, very tasty, with many seeds but little flesh. They do not ripen fully on the tree and require a period of storage after harvest to become edible. Rich in minerals, pectins, carbohydrates, and organic acids, which have beneficial effects on the human body.
Self-pollinating.
Highly resistant to low temperatures, tolerating down to -30°C without damage. Flowers and fruits are not harmed by late frosts.
You can purchase seedlings of Medlar Domestic 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.
