Alexey, Rostov Region

The bush is a three-year-old planted with a shank. The first unpainted signaling took off last summer. Today, the first berries began to be eaten after August 20, and by the beginning of September sugar had gained well. The pulp with a crunch, dense.

Victor, Kazakhstan

My bushes are over 40 years old. There are two of them, growing in the yard on a pergola. I’ll cover them for the winter. Bunches hang to frost, the berry does not crack. I keep the harvest in the basement, it can lie until spring, but we eat everything earlier. I tried to make wine out of it, I liked the result.

The variety requires a lot of experience from the grower; not everyone can grow it. Typhi is a heat-loving variety, so in moderate climates it is difficult to get high yields.
