Notes: Surh Anor is hardy and resists late winter cold and slow to break bud. Resistant to high humidity problems on the fruit. Vigorous bush, has preformed as well as Salavatski in Alma, Georgia. Part of the original test plot of Dr. Levin’s best selections {R-35) from Turkmenistan at the USDA Byron Plant Station. A pink variety, very high quality large fruit. Consistently productive with clear to red speckled arils with a high sugar content. Zone 7-9 Space 12′ circle Are you growing the variety pom surh anor? We had a small trial here in zone 7 and this one was just as cold hardy as salavatski and kazake. However it was even more productive than these. And the fruits tasted great, in my opinion just as good as the other two and larger fruited than kazake, overall about the same size fruit as salavatski.
