Crimea: fruits in June and July. List, title, properties and description

The natural conditions on the territory of the peninsula differ depending on the proximity of the mountains, the sea, and the characteristics of the soil. Therefore, Crimea has been growing a variety of fruits since ancient times. They are adapted for each region. Great merit in what kind of fruit in the Crimea grow, now belongs to the breeders of the Nikitsky Botanical Garden.

Beware, "foreign guests"

Every self-respecting tourist, having arrived to the Crimea, should try the fruit necessarily. But caution does not hurt. Despite the fact that the Crimea cultivates such a variety of its delicious fruits, a significant number of them are imported from abroad. As a rule, they are beautiful, ideally kept, do not disappear for a long time.

Fruits of June and July

If you are lucky to get in the beginning of summer to Crimea, fruits in June can be tried in a large assortment. It is apricot, mulberry, cherry, strawberry, peach. Each of them has a colorful taste. The impressions received will be another reason to return here.

Some prefer to visit the peninsula later, knowing what kind of tender sea in the middle of summer the Crimea meets, what fruits in July. These are fruits with royal taste: new varieties of peaches, watermelons, melons, Crimean tomatoes, apples. And now about each in more detail.

Mulberry

It is very special. Once it was imported from China and since then it feels fine in the Crimean climate. Within the peninsula there are about 9 species. And some do not grow anywhere except the Crimea. Mulberry ripens in June, in large quantities, closer to its second half.

The local mulberry grows quite large. White and black, she is very juicy and sweet. Unfortunately, transporting it over long distances is impossible because of its tenderness. Therefore, it is necessary to eat enough of it in place.

A lot of value and leaves of mulberry. They are used to feed silkworms. In addition, leaves and berries are used in a dried form as an additive to tea, and also as a medicinal folk remedy.

Crimean Apricots

Some of the best fruits that the Crimea can offer in June are local apricots. They are well in the area of Bakhchisaray and Simferopol. In the area of the South Coast, short-term frosts are possible during the beginning of flowering of apricots, which leads to their crop failure. Therefore, a lot of them and at a cheap price can be found in about one year out of 3-4.

In the Crimea, there are many varieties that have been developed specifically for this region. Apricot Krasnoshcheky and Pineapple are considered to be true Crimean varieties. But one should not treat without respect and wildness. The fact is that wild apricots in the Crimea differ from those in other regions. Often here they are much sweeter. And some bitterness only gives piquancy to taste.

The red-cheeked variety has an orange color and a reddish blush is almost half. The fruits are rather large, juicy and dense. An average degree of sweetness. The stone is small.

A separate conversation about the apricot Pineapple. It has a pale orange-cream color. Inside an oblong bone. Sweet and dense pulp. It has some sweetness, even a bone inside the apricot.

Cherries

The cherry season begins in the Crimea from the middle of June and lasts until the end of July. Later varieties and sweeter. Crimean most common varieties: Mayskaya Skorospelka, Drogana Yellow, Kara Kerez, Napoleon. The first of them is dark red, the shape of the berries is cordate, its flesh is also dark red. Very tasty. The second one has a yellow color, a ruddy barrel. Its size is more than average. Very sweet.

A small recommendation for tourists who like to walk through the mountains, explore new places and are lovers of sweet cherry. This berry in the Crimea grows well and everywhere. Unfortunately, today is not the best time for agriculture and for growing cherries in particular. There are abandoned gardens. Cherries in them are already somewhat "wild", but it remains very sweet. In addition, it has not been treated with any chemicals for several years.

Therefore, it is worth combining the useful with the pleasant. And not only go hiking for the sake of the trip, but also to eat Crimean cherries. For a long time abandoned gardens can be found at the memorial between the villages of Uglovoye and Peschanoe, near the Red Mountains.

Strawberry

There are a lot of different varieties in the Crimea. It is worth choosing the local. It is not so big and beautiful as imported, but very sweet. Its aroma is strong. Berries have an elongated shape. The Crimean local strawberry is very fleshy and tender. It is very difficult to transport it. So, if the strawberry is on the market for several hours and is dry and does not lose its appearance, it is worth doubting that it is local.

Peaches

Peaches and figs are the best of all that the Crimea can offer vegetables and fruits. On the peninsula, about 20 varieties of peaches are grown. Their size can be different. The skin is velvety, covered with villi or smooth. The color of the pulp varies from white to yellow-red or even red.

In order not to be mistaken with the choice of a peach in the Crimean market, it is necessary not only to choose a ripe, but also to smell it well. Crimean local peaches have a very strong and sweet smell. He is heard from a distance. However, you need to smell, so as not to make a mistake and not buy a peach, brought from afar green and raspevshy here. Sniffing at such a "guest of the Crimea", you can hear the smell of dust or another chemical shade. As a rule, such peaches are very beautiful, smooth. Unlike them, local ripe fruits can have not quite a beautiful view, a slightly knocked-out skin or a too soft barrel. But it's not scary. Their sugar taste compensates for these shortcomings.

Peaches ripen in July. The most common and delicious are the following.

1. Fluffy early. Cream small fruit. Round. Flesh is greenish. Very juicy.

2. Red-cheeked. Its size is more than average, rounded. Cream color with green flesh.

3. Juicy. Green-beige fruit with a blush half-cherry shade. Very juicy greenish flesh color.

4. Nectarine of Kiev. This is a red-burgundy fruit with orange flesh. Sweet with a little sourness. A bone is usually easily separated.

Peach is useful for exciting children's appetite. They advise him for diseases of the stomach, intestines, and violations of rhythm. It is recommended to rinse your mouth after eating peaches. Their fruit acids negatively affect the enamel of the teeth.

Nectarines

This fruit is also grown in the Crimea. However, in very small volumes. Therefore, if you want to try the Crimean fruit, do not take nectarine. As a rule, it is imported. Unfortunately, to a large extent the Crimea fruit in July, like throughout the year, gets from Spain or Turkey.

Figs

Of all that the Crimea grows fruit, figs are the most exotic and extraordinary. This fruit can really eat only here. Figs give two crops in the Crimea. One in June-July, and the other in August. This fruit should be at purchase necessarily soft and juicy. And not dryish with dried interior. The fig is very sweet. In the Crimea grows white and purple figs. Each of them is good in its own way.

Fig is a real storehouse of vitamins and minerals. It is recommended for diabetes mellitus, as it helps reduce blood sugar. In addition, it helps reduce cholesterol and fights with the formation of atherosclerotic changes in the vessels.

The "tasty" season on the peninsula begins fairly early and ends in late autumn. From May to November the Crimea offers vegetables and fruits in a wide range.

All of them are different from those grown in neighboring regions. Having visited Crimea in these months, what fruits in July or September, you can find out easily.
