Variety description

10 August 2026

The rootstock was selected from forms of damson plum and is used as a semi-vigorous or semi-dwarfing component in intensive fruit growing. Trees grafted onto it reduce vigor by 20–35% compared to seedling rootstocks, which simplifies canopy management, while trees usually do not require mandatory support.

The plant demonstrates resistance to fire blight and Phytophthora rot, adapts well to calcareous and dry soils, as well as to replant conditions. The rootstock is sensitive to root desiccation during transplanting and is not prone to forming abundant root suckers.

It is propagated vegetatively via green and hardwood cuttings. The use of this rootstock contributes to an increase in the yield of grafted fruit crops.
