Peach Zlatodar

The Zlatodar peach variety is a medium-early, high-yielding variety developed by Ukrainian breeders and registered in 2005 by the Institute of Irrigated Horticulture named after M.F. Sidorenko. The tree of this variety is medium-sized, reaching a height of 1.5 to 2 meters and forming a rounded crown. Fruit production begins in the third year after planting, allowing for a relatively quick first harvest. The variety is characterized by high resistance to diseases, making it a reliable choice for gardeners.

The fruits of Zlatodar have a broadly oval shape and weigh up to 120 grams, although some specimens can reach 160-180 grams. The skin is yellow with a red blush and slight fuzz, while the flesh is yellow, juicy, and has a sweet-tart flavor. It is important to note that the stones do not detach from the fruit, which should be considered when using them. The variety is self-fertile and has frost resistance up to -25°C, expanding its cultivation possibilities in various climatic conditions.

Zlatodar is considered one of the best varieties for canning due to its flavor qualities and fruit structure. It is well-suited for cultivation on chernozem soils and is supplied as one-year-old saplings packed in polyethylene bags. This variety combines high yield, fruit quality, and resistance, making it attractive for gardeners seeking a stable and tasty peach harvest.
