<strong>35</strong>-<strong>154</strong> <strong>RZ</strong> - Red<br />

This new <strong>red</strong> br<strong>in</strong>gs <strong>Rijk</strong> <strong>Zwaan</strong> back<br />

<strong>in</strong>to the <strong>red</strong> market <strong>–</strong> and with a bang!<br />

The production of <strong>35</strong>-<strong>154</strong> <strong>RZ</strong> is the<br />

highest we have seen of any variety. This<br />

was our second test year for the variety<br />

<strong>in</strong> Ontario and it was a hot summer. So<br />

it was great to see that the fruit quality<br />

of this variety held up wonderfully. The<br />

fruits stay firm, have an extra large size<br />

and very little blossom end rot. The<br />

plant grows strong and sets easily. There<br />

is a good leaf coverage for the summer.<br />

HR: Tm:0-2/ ToMV:0.<br />

<strong>35</strong>-306 <strong>RZ</strong> - Orange<br />

<strong>35</strong>-306 <strong>RZ</strong> is a new blocky orange<br />

variety for the large fruit segment. It has<br />

a shorter plant and a better fruit shape<br />

compar<strong>in</strong>g to Orangery <strong>RZ</strong>. The plant<br />

has less vegetative tendencies compar<strong>in</strong>g<br />

to our other orange varieties. This<br />

allows for a more steady fruit load and<br />

therefore an opportunity for higher production<br />

and more steady fruit size. The<br />

fruit quality is also very good early and<br />

right to the very end of the crop cycle.<br />

HR: Tm:0/ PMMoV:2,3<br />

Vancouver <strong>RZ</strong> (<strong>35</strong>-227 <strong>RZ</strong>) -<br />

Yellow<br />

This new yellow variety has a good<br />

shape and shelf life. The fruit size is<br />

suitable for flow pack<strong>in</strong>g or regular pack<strong>in</strong>g.<br />

The plant is more open and smaller<br />

leaf compar<strong>in</strong>g to baselga <strong>RZ</strong>. Nice easy<br />

balance through the season.<br />

Tm:0-3 virus resistance.<br />

<strong>35</strong>-226 <strong>RZ</strong> - Yellow<br />

<strong>35</strong>-226 <strong>RZ</strong> yellow is a baselga look<strong>in</strong>g<br />

type plant with easy growth and high<br />

production. Good fruit shape is easier<br />

to achieve <strong>in</strong> the early season compar<strong>in</strong>g<br />

to baselga <strong>RZ</strong>. Generative steer<strong>in</strong>g is<br />

recommended for best results.<br />

Tm:0-3 virus resistance.<br />
