Apple tree 'Dinija' (DI variety)

Variety of 2022. Reproduction rights protected (owner - Horticultural Institute).

The tree is columnar, medium-sized, with a branching crown. Very productive, blooms and produces abundantly, with larger yields alternating with smaller ones. To obtain good fruit size and regular yields, thinning of fruiting bodies is recommended.  

Blooms moderately early.

Fruits are medium-sized or smaller, flat-rounded. The surface color is bright, dark red, covering most of the fruit. The flesh is medium-firm, very fine-grained, juicy, sweet with a slight acidity. Contains quite a lot of polyphenols (153.3 mg 100 g -1 ), which increases the nutritional value of the fruit.

Autumn variety. Harvested in mid-September, stable on the tree, may crack if picked too late. Stored in a refrigerator (2...3°C) until January, February.

Scab-resistant variety (gene Vf/Rvi6 ), also resistant to powdery mildew and rot. Winter hardiness is good in Dobele, not tested elsewhere.

Comments: A scab-resistant columnar apple with bright and sweet fruits, produces every year. Disadvantage – the fruits can be small. Recommended for planting in home gardens.
