Wavit®Prudom(S) is a vegetatively propagated type selected for excellent orchard characteristics by Schreiber Nursery in Austria. It combines the well-known positive characteristics of „Wangenheim‘s seedling“ with good fruit size and the advantages of a vegetatively propagated clonal rootstock, such as excellent uniformity in the nursery and in the orchard.

 

Wavit®Prudom(S) induces dwarfing slightly weaker than „St. Julien types“, growing about 20/30% weaker than „GF 655/2“.

 

With trees on Wavit®Prudom(S), yields start early, from the 2nd/3rd year with usual education and cultural management.

 

Regular, low alternating yields with good fruit size are advantageous. In addition, the good compatibility with all types of plums and apricots speaks in favor of Wavit® Prudom(S).

 

The grafting points are hardly visible and the stability is good to very good. Wavit®Prudom(S) has a fi ne-grained root system with some stable main roots and is very frost hardy. It has very little to no tendency to succering. CDB added this innovative promising rootstock to its program in 2003 and owns the worldwide production and marketing rights.
