The pears are medium in size. The weight of one fruit is about 150 grams. Individual specimens can reach 230 grams. The pear shape is standard.

The harvest takes place in the first half of September. The shelf life of harvested pears is 2.5-3 months.

Characteristics

  • Tatyana begins to bear fruit 7 - 8 years after planting as an annual seedling, which indicates late early fruiting;
  • autumn variety. In the south of the Voronezh region, the ripening period is average. Harvesting maturity occurs in the first half of September. The period of pear consumption lasts until November-December, for 80 - 90 days;
  • flowering occurs somewhat later than other pear varieties growing in the recommended growing zone, so return frosts do not threaten the flowers;
  • According to the State Register, the average yield over the years of state testing (1995 - 1998) was 113 c/ha, which is almost 2 times higher than the control variety. According to other data, the yield during the first fruiting period is 144 c/ha, and subsequently increases to 154 c/ha;
  • fruiting is annual;
  • ripe pears do not fall off;
  • Tatyana has good immunity. The crop is especially resistant to scab and is weakly affected by powdery mildew;
  • winter hardiness in the recommended growing zone is very high. In the winter of 1986 - 1987, when thermometers recorded -34°C, freezing of tissues was very weak - up to 1 point. But in the Ryazan region, winter hardiness is no longer so high; without insulation, young trees may die;
  • the harvested crop tolerates transportation well;
  • subject to storage conditions, the fruits can last until February;
  • method of use is universal. Compotes from this pear are especially good; their quality is rated 4.6 points.

Reviews

The pear tree has grown quite tall, but its crown is narrow and the tree is quite compactly located in the garden. We had to wait a long time for the first harvest, but the quality of the harvested fruits was simply excellent

The fruits on Tatyana are not one-dimensional, but there are very few small specimens. Pears taste very good, so we leave most of the fruits fresh and store them in the cellar.

The tree of this variety is quite tall, but it is not difficult to care for. The pear rarely gets sick and does not need special care. To harvest from it, you will need a stepladder and a special fruit picker.

Planting and care

You can plant a pear in spring and autumn , but most gardeners prefer spring , since during the growing season the seedling has time to take root and prepare for the coming winter.

In order for our variety to show all its capabilities to the fullest, it is very important to choose the most suitable place for planting it.

The Tatyana variety is a vigorous tree and for its full development it requires a well-lit, free place without close proximity to other plants and buildings. Believe me, the pear is worthy of a royal position in your garden.

Lyubimitsa Yakovleva, Noyabrskaya, and Orlovskaya beauty are also strong-growing.

If you decide to plant several pear trees, you can arrange them in a row with an interval of 3-4 meters.

The pear tree does not tolerate flooding, and if it is possible, plants should be planted on artificial ridges or hills, and drainage grooves are needed to drain excess water.

Planting holes for pears should be no smaller than 1 meter and in diameter - 80 by 80 centimeters. The upper fertile layer is deposited separately from the less fertile one; when digging a planting hole, a roller must be made from the less fertile soil along the edge of the tree trunk circle to prevent water from spreading when watering.

The soil should be enriched with a large bucket of humus, two handfuls of superphosphate, a handful of potassium salts and a shovel of wood ash per seedling.

Pear grows well in slightly acidic soils and does not require liming of the soil. A mound is built in the middle of the planting hole, and the roots are evenly distributed along its slopes.

The mound must be well compacted, and when the roots are covered with soil, it is constantly compacted so that there are no voids , due to which the roots rot and the plant may die.

A peg is driven in next to the seedling, and our plant is loosely tied to it. The seedling is watered abundantly and the soil is mulched.

It should be noted that the younger the seedling, the faster and more painlessly rooting occurs; the best planting material is one- and two-year-old seedlings.

When planting annual plants, the top should be shortened to a meter, and the buds located below 50 centimeters should be removed; biennial seedlings have fairly developed shoots, and the pear is prone to self-forming crowns; pruning is done only for sanitary purposes.

In the event that freezing occurs and the pear grows tops, some of them are left to replace the affected shoots, but they will bear fruit only if they are placed horizontally, tied to pegs.

Watering and weeding in the first year of life are carried out regularly as needed; fertilizing is not needed - organic matter is added once every three years; enough minerals are added to the soil during planting for several years.

A lack of nutrients is easily determined when the growth of young shoots slows down; if their growth proceeds normally, no additional feeding is required.

An excess of organic matter leads to excessive growth of shoots, which, as a rule, do not have time to ripen by winter, and an excess of mineral fertilizers leads to poisoning of the plant body.

In everything we need measure, or rather, scientifically based calculation.

Before fruiting begins, the tree trunk circle needs to be dug up, then grassed and the grass must be mowed regularly.

Characteristics of pear Tatyana

  • Pear has a wonderful dessert taste. It is used for winter preparations, added to baked goods, prepared desserts, marmalade and compotes. When raw, the fruits do not last long and often fall off, so the harvest is harvested 10-12 days before full ripening.
  • The Tatyana variety pear calmly tolerates temperatures down to -30°C and survives the winter well, has high transportability and good presentation.

Planting a pear Tatyana

The most important step is choosing a good seedling. It should not show any signs of disease or damage. The optimal time for planting this variety is considered to be the beginning of spring.

Selecting a location

Pear loves sunlight

The ideal planting site is a place with good sunlight and protected from drafts. It must be taken into account that the groundwater on it should be as low as possible. It is believed that for better plant growth, the selected area must be enriched in advance with organic matter with the addition of superphosphate.

Pit preparation

The diameter of the planting hole is 70-80 cm, and the depth is at least 90-100 cm. It is prepared in advance, preferably in the fall. If the area has not been fertilized, 2 buckets of humus mixed with a bucket of sand and soil with the addition of mineral fertilizers are added to the hole.

Planting

The seedling is lowered into the planting hole very carefully so as not to damage the root system. The roots are straightened, after which the tree is covered with soil, making sure that the root collar remains several centimeters above ground level.

After planting, the soil is compacted well and the plant is watered abundantly.
