Apple tree varieties that have long lost their popularity
Every year, modern varieties of fruit-bearing trees that yield apples are added to the state register, with increased advantages, for example, a large amount of harvest, a high level of resistance to cold weather and a variety of diseases. Some well-known varieties of fruiting trees are distinguished by an amazing level of resistance to scab, other varieties are famous for good keeping quality and long-term maintenance, while others have an excellent presentation and unique taste.

Try to give preference to modern types that have managed to win the hearts of summer residents and consumers. Most likely you will not regret it.
In order not to waste time annually thinking about how to get rid of a diverse spectrum of apple diseases, to be nervous about how fruit trees will survive the winter season, and to try to increase yields, but without success, it is worth trying to remove old-fashioned varieties and plant modern ones. Let's try to figure out which varieties should be removed from our territory.
For example, a very old variety of apple trees "cinnamon", of course, has excellent taste, but it cannot boast of the same beautiful appearance, and the amount of harvest is not at all happy. And the fruits of the "autumn" variety grow too large in size, begin to produce crops much later than other varieties and differ in a low level of drought resistance. It is better to give preference to the variety "Orlovskaya"With amazing fruits and a good amount of harvest. Cinnamon apple varieties yield earlier than others, yield a consistently large amount of yield and have a high level of scab resistance.
Varieties "quintti" and "papier"Are summer, also not very suitable for cultivation. "Quintti Canadian»Does not have a high level of resistance to cold and scab disease. "Folding»Brings unstable harvests, and the fruits have a pronounced sourness, if the apples are not removed from the branches at the right time, then they have no taste at all, and still do not have the ability to transport them over long distances. Instead of these varieties, summer residents preferred the varieties “canadian melba"With amazing apples. And modern varieties of "early scarlet" and "eagle"Bring a large amount of harvest, and even earlier than other varieties bring a harvest, however, to everyone's surprise, they have a higher level of cold resistance than the variety"melba».
Varieties with a high level of cold resistance can be removed "North synap"bringing not very tasty apples, "Pepin saffron"subject to regular scab infestation, and also a variety "Memory of Michurin”, Bringing an unstable harvest. "Antonovka", Of course, has a huge list of advantages, but summer residents complain about the inconsistent fruit offering, short maintenance time and the formation of plaque in the maintenance process. In terms of taste, there is nothing similar to "Antonovka", however, in terms of the amount of harvest and ripening time, it is easy and easy to find an alternative to it. For example, varieties: «legend"," Lingonberry ","cinnamon new», «Marat Busurin».
