From time immemorial, mountain ash has grown in our forests. People collected its fruits and used them for both food and medicinal purposes, but they were in no hurry to introduce them into culture, unlike currants, gooseberries and other berry bushes and fruit trees. Only in the 19th century residents of the village of Nevezhina, Vladimir region, selected three sweet-fruited forms in nature, which became the first varieties of mountain ash of folk selection and called them Nevezhinskaya red, Nevezhinskaya yellow and Nevezhinskaya cubic. The well-known manufacturer of alcoholic beverages Smirnov bought up the fruits of these varieties and produced the famous rowan tincture based on them. And in order to confuse his competitors, he called it Nezhinskaya. Hence the confusion - Nezhinskaya - Nevezhinskaya.

Of the breeders, the first who drew attention to the mountain ash and engaged in its selection was I. V. Michurin. In 1925, he pollinated the flowers of Siberian hawthorn, or blood red hawthorn ( Crataegus sanguinea), rowan pollen ( Sorbus aucaparia) and got viable seeds. The hybrid was named Crategosorbus Michurin(Bayaryshnikoryabin Michurin). The best of the hybrid plants, which gave large faceted fruits of dark red pomegranate color in the fifth year of life, was recognized as a variety, which was given the name Pomegranate, sometimes called Michurinskaya pomegranate. Abroad, he is known as Ivan*s belle.

Outwardly, the pomegranate mountain ash is a tree up to 3-4 m high, very similar to the common mountain ash. Lives up to 20-25 years. Winter-hardy. Shoots ripen well and are usually not damaged by sunburn, frost or frost. It is photophilous, although it tolerates some shading, but in the latter case, the yield is low.

The leaves of the mountain ash Pomegranate up to 13 cm long and 7 cm wide, alternate, unpaired pinnate, consist of 9-11 oblong-elliptical leaves, quite decorative. The root system is developed, fibrous.

Fruit buds are mixed. The flowers are similar to the flowers of mountain ash - small, white, collected 50-100 in large corymbose inflorescences. Although this variety starts the vegetation early, it blooms late, so the flowers are almost never damaged by return frosts, they are very honey-bearing, pollinated mostly by bees.

Burgundy-pomegranate fruits are spherical, faceted, weighing 1.0-1.6 g, sour-sweet in taste with a slight pleasant astringency. The pulp is yellow, juicy.

Rowan Pomegranate- multivitamin plant. Its fruits contain up to 30 mg /% vitamin C, 12 mg /% carotene, as well as vitamins B2, B9, K, P, E, pectins, macro- and microelements. The fruits are mostly processed. They make excellent jam, jelly, jam, excellent wine, tinctures, compote, syrup, juice and other products.

The variety is high-yielding, regularly produces 15-20 kg of fruit per tree. In young trees, they are mainly concentrated on fruit twigs, in mature trees - on annulus, which live 4-7 years.

Although the mountain ash Pomegranate is self-fertile, with cross-pollination, its yield is much higher. The best of pollinators for her - variety Dessert, which has the most delicious fruits of all rowan varieties bred by I. V. Michurin, as well as new varieties - Vefed and Sorbinka. It is possible to plant wild forms of mountain ash as pollinators, but it is not advisable, since they themselves produce less valuable fruits.

Pomegranate mountain ash is propagated only vegetatively - by grafting (more often by budding) on ​​rowan seedlings, root offspring (only own-rooted specimens), arc layering and green cuttings.

Budding is carried out in late July - early August, and in March-April of the next year, the grafted plants are pruned, preferably with a spike, since plants cut into buds have to be spud several times to avoid breakage and curvature of the stems.

In the spring, rowan pomegranate cuttings can ennoble rowan trees, if there is one on the site. Grafting techniques are standard: copulation, butt, split, side cut, etc. The thickenings at the grafting site are small, the degree of fusion of the components is high.

The method of propagation by arcuate layering is also standard. The lower branches of the tree, after removing a bark ring 3-5 mm wide from them or pulling them in the right place, bend them to the ground, dig in (the soil must be fertile and loose) so that the end of the branch is bent, and fix with hooks or pegs. After 2-3 years, the layers are separated. Rowan can also be propagated by air layering, but this method is used unnecessarily rarely.

Green cuttings are carried out during flowering. The use of growth preparations ( heteroauxin or root), the use of greenhouses and good care make it possible to achieve rooting of cuttings of more than 60%.

Of the soils, mountain ash Pomegranate prefers sod-weakly podzolic loams. Responds well to organic fertilizers. Moisture-loving, but does not tolerate excess water, especially stagnant. It is desirable that the groundwater level on the site be no closer than 1.5-2 m from the soil surface. Wetlands for growing rowan Pomegranate are unsuitable.

It is better to plant mountain ash Pomegranate in the fall, but it is also possible in the spring, before the buds open. Planting pits are made the same as for plums and cherries. When planting, it is permissible to deepen the root collar by 4-5 cm. The planted mountain ash is watered, after which the trunk circle is mulched.

The soil should always be loose and free of weeds. With proper filling of the planting pit, the first years the plant is fed only with nitrogen (20-25 g of nitrate or urea). Do it in the spring. With the onset of fruiting in the spring they give nitrogen, and in the fall - phosphorus (40-50 g of superphosphate) and potassium (20-30 g of potassium salt). In the dry period, plants are watered at the rate of 3-4 buckets of water per 1 m2.

The best bushy and sparsely-longline formations. The crown should be light and compact, the skeletal branches are strong, with an angle of departure of at least 40 °. When deepening, the crown is thinned out. In fruiting specimens, the crown is regularly reduced so that the height of the tree does not exceed 3 m.

Of the pests, leaves of mountain ash Pomegranate most often infect aphids, mites, scale insects, sawfly larvae, and butterfly caterpillars. Of the diseases on it, you can find rust, the main host of which is juniper. Therefore, in order to prevent these trees should not be planted close to each other. If we talk about fruit diseases, then most often the pomegranate mountain ash is affected by fruit rot (moniliosis). In addition, she may suffer from powdery mildew, brown spotting, fire blight, wilt, and some viral diseases. Pest and disease control measures are common. Birds sometimes reduce the harvest in autumn, field thrushes and starlings are especially dangerous.

Varietal mountain ash, including Pomegranate, in home gardens can still be found infrequently. True, every year the interest of amateur gardeners in them increases. In the north and north-west of our country, varietal mountain ash should be more widely distributed, especially since it is not only a fruit plant, but also an ornamental plant. Brilliant carved foliage, abundant creamy caps of inflorescences, numerous burgundy fruits - all this looks great next to conifers, as well as fruit and ornamental shrubs. Mountain ash Pomegranate is especially good next to viburnum, barberry and mahonia. The mountain ash Pomegranate also looks great in ordinary plantings along the fence separating neighboring plots. In this case, the distance between the trees should be 2-2.5 m, then not only the decor of the site, but also its protection from cold winter winds, especially if the mountain ash is planted on the northern, northeastern and eastern sides of the estate, and, which is difficult to overestimate, a rowan hedge is a reliable fire barrier. The fact is that rowan during a fire not only does not burn itself, but also prevents the spread of fire. This property of mountain ash was well known to our ancestors. Therefore, this tree was planted between the houses.

It would be useful for gardeners to resume this tradition, using the achievements of selection and applying modern means of agricultural technology.

Positive traits:

• Variety able to withstand severe frosts, so it can be planted in the northern regions of Russia;
• high yield, up to 2 large buckets of ripe fruits can be removed from one tree per season;
refers to self-fertile varieties, so when planting, it will not be necessary to additionally plant pollinators. But still, many gardeners recommend planting pollinators nearby for cross-pollination to increase yields;
• Ripe fruits are big sizes;
• Good taste qualities no taste of bitterness;
• Berries can be stored long time.

The negative qualities include the following disadvantages:

• Short juice service. The mountain ash tree Pomegranate lives on average from 20 to 25 years;
• Average resistance to exposure to harmful insects and diseases.

Landing Features

For planting this variety, you can use drained sod and sod-weakly podzolic loamy soil. Trees grow best on this soil and are quickly adopted.

Do not plant a plant on soil with a close groundwater flow. Pomegranate mountain ash cannot grow in a swampy and stagnant place.

The most suitable season for planting mountain ash is the autumn period.. It is also allowed to plant in the spring, but the main thing is to do this before the buds open. In addition, for planting it is worth choosing a sunny place with a good flow of sunlight. In dark places, mountain ash will produce low yields with poor quality.

The most suitable season for planting pomegranate rowan is autumn

How to plant:

• First thing digging a hole for landing;
• The diameter of the future hole should be 1 meter, the depth level should be approximately half a meter;
• The bottom layer of soil must be mixed with 20 kilograms of humus, 400 grams of superphosphate, 200-300 grams of potassium sulfate;
• Deepen the neck basal type into the ground is necessary by 4-5 cm;
• After that seedling needs to be watered plenty of water, at least 2 buckets;
• Mulching in progress layer not less than 8-10 cm;
• Compost can be used for loosening mixed with wood ash.

It should be borne in mind that when planting, the distance between the planted trees should be at least 2-2.5 meters.

Care

Watering and loosening

Mountain ash Pomegranate loves to grow on moist soil, but it does not tolerate severe stagnant water. In the absence of precipitation, mountain ash should be watered three times. Watering is carried out according to the scheme:

• First watering performed at the beginning of the growing season;

• next watering performed approximately 17-21 days before harvest;
• Last watering produced approximately 21-28 days after harvest.

Watering should be done in the area in the groove that runs around the trunk. For 1 sq. meter will require about 30-40 liters of water.

Be sure to loosen the ground after each watering, this will keep the right amount of water in the soil. Besides loosening the soil is recommended during early spring and autumn, in preparation for winter. It is recommended to dig the ground no deeper than 15 cm, so as not to harm the roots.

Cropping Features

Be sure to prune trees during the growth process. Sanitary and formative pruning is carried out.

Pruning features:

• In spring, trees start growing earlier, so circumcision should be done before the buds swell;

• In young plants shortening by 1 kidney is carried out, shoots are removed, due to which an acute angle is formed;
• For mature trees pruning is done as needed. It is usually done to shape the shape of the crown, as well as to thin it out;
• All lower branches shoots near the roots are cut off;
• Other branches shortened by 1/3.

Fertilizer features

If fertilizer mixtures were introduced into the planting hole during planting, then during the first three years, pomegranate mountain ash should be fertilized. In the spring time during the digging of the earth, it is necessary to make 25 grams of ammonium nitrate or urea. From the fourth year of life in addition to spring, top dressing is done in the fall.
