Variety Yulian

Yulian (working code VN8) is a hybrid form of amateur breeding by V. U. Kapeliushnyi (Kesha × Rizamat). It ripens very early, in 95–105 days. The cluster is very large, of medium density, on a long stalk, usually 700–1200 g. The berries are pink, nipple-shaped, exceptionally large: about 4 cm long and 26–28 mm wide. The flesh is firm and crisp, the skin is thin and almost unnoticeable, the taste harmonious, and sugar accumulates well.

The bush is vigorous, the flower is hermaphroditic, the shoots ripen early, and cuttings root well. The crop needs regulating, and the fruiting vine is recommended to be pruned to 8–10 buds. Wasps practically do not damage the berries, and marketable appearance and transportability are high. Resistance to downy mildew, powdery mildew and gray mold is about 2.5–3 points. It withstands down to −24 °C, and the vine is covered for winter. The variety is new and is still being tested.
