Plum Volzhskaya early: reviews of gardeners about the variety
-
Maxim Alexandrovich, Sverdlovsk region: “Volzhskaya early plum is a real find for me. Last summer I collected about 30 kg of ripe plums from one fruit tree. While other varieties of plums in my garden showed a yield of no more than 5 kg. I was so shocked by the results that I began to read about this variety. So really, early Volzhskaya plum is capable of producing crops up to thirty-six kilograms! "

Marina Viktorovna, Moscow region: “I have been choosing for a long time which variety of plums to choose for growing. Stopped on a plum variety Volzhskaya early. I liked that the variety is resistant to many diseases and pests, self-fertile, has a high yield. It has not yet been possible to assess how right the respondents are, but even by the indicator that half of my fruit trees on the site are sick with scab, and there is no early Volzhskaya plum - I think they can be trusted.
