Variety Polonez-50

Polonez-50 (also called simply Polonez) is a hybrid form of private breeding by O. M. Pysanka (Ukraine; No. 03-33; Achilles × Legenda Aksaia). It ripens early, in 100–110 days, in the middle of August. The cluster is very large, conical or cylindrical-conical, loose or of medium density, 700–1000 g. The berries are large, 12–14 g, elongated-egg-shaped, red-violet or raspberry, with a moderate waxy bloom. The skin is thin, the flesh firm and crisp, the taste harmonious.

The flower is functionally female, so a pollinator variety with a hermaphroditic flower is needed nearby: cluster density and berry set depend on pollination. Yields are high, and resistance to fungal diseases is medium. It withstands down to −23 °C, and the vine is covered for winter. A variety for fresh eating. Do not confuse it with the Michurinsk variety “Polonez” — that is a different variety.
