Ujfehertoi Furtos

Why «Ujfehertoi Furtos» is a professional's choice

Hungarian breeding has long established itself as a benchmark for resilience in the climatic conditions of Eastern Europe. The «Ujfehertoi Furtos» variety, provided by Holland Plant Ukraine, is a classic choice that remains highly relevant for stable harvests in challenging growing conditions.

Key advantages

• Disease resistance: The main challenges for stone fruits — moniliosis and coccomycosis — are not critical threats to this variety. The tree shows high natural resistance, which helps reduce the need for chemical treatments.
• Late harvest: While other orchards have finished their season, «Ujfehertoi Furtos» is just entering its active fruiting phase. Harvesting in July–August allows for a prolonged market window, ensuring fresh produce is available when early varieties are already sold out.
• Culinary quality: Despite the impressive size of the fruits (6–8 g) and their deep red color, the true value lies in the balance of sweet-and-sour flavor and flesh juiciness. This is not just a canning cherry, but a premium dessert product.

Who is this variety for?

«Ujfehertoi Furtos» is a vigorous tree that requires adequate space and proper training. It is an ideal choice for commercial orchardists targeting the fresh produce market. The stone separates easily from the flesh, making it highly versatile for both direct retail and culinary processing.

Weaknesses and recommendations

Due to its vigorous growth, the tree requires regular pruning to keep the canopy manageable for hand harvesting. We recommend this variety to those ready to focus on proper crown formation at the initial stage — the result, in the form of a reliable annual harvest, justifies the effort.
