DESSERTNOE KICHINY

The Malus domestica 'Dessertnoe Kichiny' is a late-summer dessert variety with a rounded crown and medium tree height. Branches are sparsely arranged, and leaves are ovate with a green matte color. The fruits of this variety are large, elongated, light yellow in color, with a mass of about 150 grams. They differ in sweet taste and tender flesh, making them particularly attractive to consumers.

Harvest readiness of fruits occurs in late September, while consumer maturity is achieved in the second half of November. Apples keep well in fresh form until March and even longer, which allows their use for a long time after harvest. The average yield of the variety is about 19.1 centners per hectare.

The variety has medium winter hardiness and drought resistance, which makes it suitable for growing in central regions. Moreover, Dessertnoe Kichiny is resistant to scab and sooty blotch, reducing the need for frequent use of protective agents. The authors of the variety are Viktor Vasilievich Kichiny and Nadezhda Gennadievna Morozova.
