Kecskemeti rózsa
Hungary
Džanarika, Interstock
Second half of July
Apricot on a rootstock is a double-grafted apricot seedling that uses the Stanley plum as an intermediary to increase resistance to tree dieback (apoplexy). Essentially, it is a dzanarika, onto which the Stanley is grafted, and then the desired apricot variety is grafted onto the Stanley at a height of about 80 cm.
Grafting process: Dzanarika - Stanley - Apricot
Purpose: To increase resistance to apoplexy (tree dieback).The Kecskemét Rose apricot originates from Hungary and is named after the city of Kecskemét where it was discovered. It is a relatively recent variety cultivated over the last 30 years and belongs to the late-season apricot group. Excellent for industrial processing.
The flesh is moderately juicy, sweet-tart, and pleasantly flavored.
The fruit is medium-sized (40–50 grams), asymmetrical, consisting of two unequal halves. The flesh is orange-yellow, firm, slightly dry, slightly mealy, sweet-tart, moderately aromatic, and high quality. The kernel is bitter. The skin is primarily orange-yellow, with a slight to intense red blush on the sun-exposed side, dotted with darker spots.
Self-pollinating.
Resistant to spring frosts. Quite disease-resistant and has modest soil requirements. Tolerates apoplexy but is sensitive to drought.
You can purchase seedlings of Apricot Kecskemét Rose - double graft at our garden center in the nursery located at Gornjem Crnjelovu, Glavna 65a.
Upon collection of the goods (seedlings), the Agromedžik nursery no longer has the possibility of supervision or care, and therefore cannot provide any further guarantee. Since seedlings are living beings, it is not possible to give a guarantee even a day after they leave the nursery. We cannot influence their maintenance and care, and consequently their further growth and development.
Our plants regularly undergo phytosanitary and vegetative inspections, therefore we do not have diseased or infected plants.
Planting is done from late October to mid-April, avoiding periods of frost and drought.
Trim the roots, then the branches into 3 to 4 rings. At the beginning of March, cut the seedlings to a height of 80 - 120 cm.
Before planting, soak the plant in water for at least 2 - 3 hours.
Dig a hole, in the previously prepared soil, measuring 60 x 60 x 50 cm for the soil (40 x 40 x 40 cm) so that the roots and part of the stem are well placed, taking care that the grafting point is outside the soil.
Place the plant in the hole and cover it with dry soil, gently press it down so that it gets well between the roots.
Fertilizer and seedling roots must not be in direct contact.

Pour with 20-30 liters of water. During periods of drought in the first year of planting, it is necessary to water young seedlings more often.
Containerized seedlings can be planted throughout the year.
*Applies to bare root seedlings.
