Apple varieties Previously Aloe gives beautiful and tasty red fruits. Culture is not whimsical to growing and is not demanding to care.
The variety is great for making jam and drying. Varieties in industrial gardening, depending on the ripening period of the fruit, are divided into: summer (July August), autumn (Aug. Sept), winter (October).
Each group, in turn, can be divided into subgroups (for example: early summer and late summer).

Breeding history
The seeds of a hybrid of two varieties Melba and Papirovka were sown in 1966. For the first time the appearance of the fruit was noted in 1973. Only in 1998 was submitted by the All-Russian Research Institute for the Breeding of Fruit Crops in the State. registry. Authors-breeders are: E. N. Sedov, N. G. Krasova, T. A. Trofimova, M. V. Mi-he-e-wa, Z. M. Serova.
Growing region
Apple Tree Scarlet Early was bred on the territory of present-day Russia in All-Russian Research Institute of Fruit Crops Selection - this apple tree is zoned in the middle of Russia.
The growing area is northwest part of the region. Variety Oryol selection in Kolomna.
Since this variety is not demanding in cultivation, it gets on well and produces beautiful fruits in other regions.
What is important is constant monitoring of the apple tree, constant disinfection and fertilizer.

It is desirable that the fruits were calibrated in size.
Planting and care
When planting a tree using classic fertilizer. In the care of an apple tree is not whimsical.
IMPORTANT! When planting, avoid places where groundwater is located close to the surface. Otherwise, the seedling will be in the water, and the tree will rot.
Apple seedlings, according to comments and expert advice, are best planted in the ground before winter.
But no later than a month of the onset of these colds.
The best months for planting seedlings of the Early Aloe variety are September or October (depending on weather and climatic conditions).
To make the tree grow strong and bring maximum yield, it is recommended to use soil loam.
Sure to plentifully water a tree immediately after landing.
The next year after landing, in the spring, it is important to foliar crown apple trees. It is necessary to trim the ends of each branch. In April you MUST make irrigation of trees with mixtures that protect against pests.
This procedure should be performed twice:
- when buds began to swell on branches;
- before the buds bloom.
After that, the tree no longer needs to be fertilized for a year. It is very important to water the tree heavily, especially in the summer.
Diseases and pests
Almost every garden culture is subject to attack by pests and the onset of various diseases. Especially when it comes to apples.
To avoid defeat, it is important to isolate the apple tree from other crops in the garden, carefully monitor the plant and constantly disinfect and fertilize the soil.
If the disease attacked the tree, then the first sign will be the appearance of wounds (fungus) on the bark. The most popular mushroom is tinder It strongly affects the trunk of an apple tree, but it affects the fruit indirectly.
Important! Not exclusively affected the pillar itself, the spoil and the whole harvest. Fruits are obtained or not ripe, or with a whole list of flaws.
Important in the early stages of such the fungus is immediately eliminated. Daily stay of the fungus on the bark pulls a lot of strength and nutrients that are needed for apple normal existence.
If the mushroom has not yet become too hard, then you can use a regular garden knife to cut it. If the fungus struck the tree badly, became very big and quite solid, then you cannot do without an ax.
Healthy wood will naturally suffer. It is important to destroy the fungus at its very roots.
Otherwise, after some time, the mushroom “settles” again in the same place. After removing the infection, the place in which she grew needs to be sanitized.
The main thing is that the cut is even, most often it takes place. make a couple of slices.
Processing should be carried out copper sulphate, after which it is desirable paint over the treated area with oil paint. If this is not done, the wound will soon become a nest for various types of pests.
The second popular mushroom is scab. Her peculiarity is that first of all she infects the leaves of the tree, and then moves to the fruit.
The trunk remains perfectly healthy. Early Aloe trees belong to the scab-resistant variety. The cause of this fungus can be air stagnation inside the crown of the tree or high humidity.
The first signs of scab are the appearance of green-brown spots on the leaves, also in a large number of small brown, forming a crust, spots on the fruit.
To prevent this disease, it is important to carry out prevention, which consists of:
- soil ash;
- crown formation;
- feed with potash fertilizers;
- feeding with compost.
If the disease still hit the tree, you should immediately begin its treatment. The treatment is due to processing the soil around the crop and spraying the tree with various mixtures.
As a rule, this is a universal set of measures, which is the prevention and treatment of virtually all diseases of the garden tree.
The best treatments are: a solution of urea (on average, 7-8 liters is needed per tree), copper oxychloride, which must be used first before flowering, and then during the appearance of the first fruits, and Bordeaux liquid, which can be easily replaced with copper sulfate.
It can be concluded that the apple variety Early Aloe vera bears beautiful fruits with high biological value. With special preparation, the sapling will germinate on any soil.
