  1. Apples and pears are popular there.


  2. Russia has olives.

  3. Apples and pears account for almost 60% of all reported fruit and berry production in Russia. Crops are concentrated in European Russia, where over 91% of all fruit was produced last year. Each of the main producing regions, Samara and Saratov oblasts, Krasnodar Kray, Voronezh, Lipetsk, Volgograd and Moscow oblasts, produced over one million MT of seed type fruits last season, or 43% of Russia's crop.

  4. Black from Tula 80-85 days. Determinate. A Russian HEIRLOOM described as “the ugliest, most delicious tomato ever grown.  Rich, full flavor makes this a favorite for slicing and fresh usage.  Great yields of 3”-4” slightly flattened fruits.  Produces over the summer into the fall.

    Black Krim 69 days, Indeterminate. HEIRLOOM from the Black Sea region of Russia.  A most unusual novelty. Fruits are a dark, deep red with dark green shoulders. Interior is a deep red, reddish green color.  Sweet and tasty. Extremely early medium sized.  Voted, “Best tasting Tomato for 1998.

    Black Sea Man 74 days, Determinate.  Small plants, medium-sized deep brown fruits, rich in flavor, Looks incredibly odd when blanched and peeled, reveling skeleton-like veins under the skin.  Potato-leaved and determinate. Outstanding in salads and sandwiches.

    The jujube originated in China where they have been cultivated for more than 4,000 years and where there are over 400 cultivars. The plants traveled beyond Asia centuries ago and today are grown to some extent in Russia, northern Africa, southern Europe, the Middle East and the southwestern United States. Jujube seedlings, inferior to the Chinese cultivars, were introduced into Europe at the beginning of the Christian era and carried to the U. S. in 1837. It wasn't until 1908 that improved Chinese selections were introduced by the USDA.

    Adaptation: The jujube can withstand a wide range of temperatures; virtually no temperature seems to be too high in summertime. Winter dormancy allows it to withstand temperatures to about -28° F, yet it requires only a small amount of winter chill in order for it to set fruit. The plant revels in summer sun and heat, with the lack of either limiting fruit production more than winter cold. Yet jujubes have fruited in the Puget Sound and low Cascade regions of Washington State as well as in Pennsylvania. Fruiting of some cultivars has also been reported in northern Florida.The Indian jujube, which is more sensitive to frost, is grown in Florida, but the fruit is considered inferior. Jujube trees are not particularly suitable for container culture, but can be grown in this manner in a large container.
