Late August – early September
Exclusively highly productive American cranberry varieties (V. macrocarpon) are cultivated for the global market, though there are now many cultivated varieties of the common cranberry (V. vitis-idaea) suitable for home gardens. Cranberry has long been recognized for its beneficial effects on the urinary tract and urinary infections. The berries are used in pies and tarts, jams and syrups, and are added to cakes and filled pastries.
The berries have a tart and refreshing taste due to their high vitamin C content.
The fruits are large (2.7 cm long, 2.4 cm wide, weighing 1.4–1.9 grams), elongated and irregular in shape, with glossy dark red skin covered by a thick waxy coating. The flesh is crisp and firm, making the variety highly suitable for processing. Cranberries are rich in protective compounds, minerals, vitamin A, vitamin C, potassium, and dietary fiber. They are often referred to as a natural antibiotic.
Self-pollinating.
Highly resistant to cold and frost (down to -40 °C). Resistant to diseases.
You can purchase seedlings of Cranberry 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.
