SAMARSKAYA PLOTNAYA

The 'Samarskaya Plotnaya' raspberry variety is a mid-late maturing type with tall, slightly spreading bushes. The berries of this variety have a conical shape, raspberry color, and an average weight of 2.6 to 3.3 grams. They are sparsely hairy, have firm flesh, and a pleasant sweet-sour taste with a pronounced aroma, making them attractive for both fresh consumption and processing.

The variety is characterized by good yield and high transportability, which allows the berries to maintain their commercial appearance during transport over long distances. 'Samarskaya Plotnaya' is a self-fertile variety, which simplifies care and increases yield stability. The bushes are resistant to frosts typical of the central region, but to achieve maximum productivity, they require a sunny location and fertile soil.

This variety was bred at the Kuybyshev Experimental Station of Horticulture; its parents are the 'Kuzmina News' and 'Kaliningrad' varieties. Despite its winter hardiness, the variety is prone to vegetative elongation, which requires timely care and pruning. Thanks to its combination of taste qualities, resistance, and transportability, 'Samarskaya Plotnaya' is an excellent choice for gardeners seeking high-quality and stable raspberry yields.
