Dwarf Lyubskaya sour cherry plants A weak-growing, bush-like tree that rarely exceeds 2.5 m. The crown is sparse, spreading, rounded and often drooping. Grey-brown bark has distinct cracks; young branches are brown with a slight silvery bloom. Fruit forms on one-year-old branches growing at about 45° to the trunk. Buds are rounded with small conical tips. Leaves are matt, thick and dark green, with yellow-brown veins, toothed edges and pointed tips. Mature leaves are oval, 8.7 × 5 cm. Clusters 3–4 cm across contain 3–4 small white flowers with rounded, slightly crinkled petals. Flowering lasts 7–9 days, depending on climate. Fruit grows singly or in clusters of 2–4 on long thin stalks and weighs 4–5 g. The sour, rather ordinary flavour is best suited to desserts, preserves, compote, homemade wine and freezing. Fruit keeps and transports well. Ripening is medium-late: mid-July in the south, late July–early August in the north. Fruiting starts at 2–3 years, with full production at 8–10 years. Well-cared-for mature trees can produce over 35 kg annually, with a stated maximum of 54 kg. Cropping is annual, and flower buds are described as tolerating cold, rainy springs. High self-fertility means no separate pollinator is required. Late flowering reduces spring frost risk. Ripe fruit remains on the branches without dropping, and the compact tree can be tended and harvested without a ladder. Drawbacks: better suited to temperate and southern areas than severe northern climates; lifespan is 15–17 years, with 5–7 years of full cropping. Wood can suffer frost damage, and trunk and branch bark may scorch in summer heat. Susceptible to cherry leaf spot and brown rot.
Consider ripening time, room for the mature crown and pollination requirements. Check the variety’s characteristics and seedling availability before visiting the nursery.

Pinova Evelina apple plants German-bred Pinova is called a '21st-century variety' by European growers for its early bearing, productivity and disease resistance. A moderately vigorous tree with a broad-pyramidal, moderately dense crown, it crops generously every year. First crops appear in year two; yields may reach 30–33 kg per tree by year three. Winter-hardy, highly resistant to powdery mildew and scab, and moderately susceptible to fire blight. Fruit is round-conical, generally symmetrical, tapering towards the base and slightly ribbed. Average weight is given as 170–190 g; another passage gives 170–200 g, with 250–300 g possible in favourable years with good care. Firm green or light green skin is usually matt. At maturity, a diffuse striped coral or carmine-red blush covers more than half the surface, sometimes 75–90%. Small pale subcutaneous dots are faint. Yellow flesh is juicy, firm, crisp, flavourful and aromatic. Fruit keeps its juiciness for 8–9 months in cool storage. Composition per 100 g: catechins 289 mg; vitamin C 20.5 mg; sugars 13.9%; titratable acids 0.37%; pectins 15.3%.
Starkrimson Amerikanka apple plants One-year-old plants are 1.5–1.8 m tall; fruit weighs 160–180 g. This American variety arose in 1921 as a chance bud mutation of Starking Delicious. Formerly grown commercially in the North Caucasus, it remains popular in private orchards. Winter hardiness and powdery mildew resistance are moderate. Scab resistance is below average; the source recommends Bordeaux mixture before flowering. On semi-dwarf MM106 rootstock, mature height is 3.5–5 m. Trees are undemanding about soil and productive from a young age. The spur-type crown has branches at acute angles and suits intensive planting. Mature-tree yield is 100–150 kg. Appearance is rated 4.8/5 and flavour 4.6–4.7/5. Fruiting begins in years 2–3, with no alternate bearing stated. Apples are elongated-conical, ribbed and deep crimson. The source explains the name using 'star' and 'crimson'. Skin is firm, thick and waxy, with pink dots. Cream-coloured flesh is juicy, firm and crisp, with a balanced sweet-tart flavour and pronounced aroma. Harvest is in late September–early October, depending on climate. Fruit keeps for about 7 months in a cellar or refrigerator and is mainly eaten fresh. Please contact Trees Vitas to confirm delivery terms.
Sievers apple rootstock Sievers rootstock comes from the wild apple native to Kazakhstan and is adapted to the sharply continental climate of Almaty and the Almaty Region. Its tolerance of temperature changes, drought and wind, together with compatibility with many apple cultivars, makes it useful in commercial and private orchards. Strong roots support growth even in poor and stony soils. It tolerates temperatures down to −35°C and provides a foundation for long-lived, productive trees. Compatible with Mantet, Rakhat Autumn, Zailiyskoye, Simirenko and other cultivars. It is described as resistant to root rots, scab and other diseases. Trees Vitas offers locally grown, quality-checked, healthy container-grown rootstocks that can be planted throughout the season. Buy directly from the nursery or arrange delivery in Almaty, the region and elsewhere in Kazakhstan. Favourable retail and wholesale prices and advice on quantities and care are available. Before planting, remove weeds, loosen the soil and add compost if needed. Water moderately, particularly in the first year. Mulch around the trunk in hot weather to retain moisture. In autumn, wrapping trunks with suitable material is recommended to protect against rodents and wind. Particularly suited to slopes, loamy and stony sites where other rootstocks establish poorly. With proper care, it develops into a strong-rooted, productive tree.
Champion peach plants Champion Early is an open-pollinated seedling of Champion, developed at the State Nikita Botanical Garden. It entered state trials in 1982 and was added to the register for the North Caucasus region, Republic of Dagestan, in 1991. The tree has moderate vigour and a broad-oval, raised, dense crown. Flowers are rose-like. Nearly round, medium-sized fruits weigh about 100 g. The thin, tender, finely velvety skin is creamy with a bright crimson blush covering almost the entire surface. The flesh is white, juicy, delicately fibrous and aromatic, with a very good dessert flavour. The small stone does not separate from the flesh. Intended for fresh eating. Ripens in the medium-early season and yields heavily. Flower-bud winter hardiness is above average, and disease damage is limited.
