Rubira is a vigorous red-leaved peach seedling rootstock, particularly valued for its resistance to green peach aphid. Its deep root system performs well in dry, light and well-aerated soils, while the trees crop relatively early and produce few suckers. Rubira is nevertheless susceptible to lime-induced iron chlorosis, making it unsuitable for soils with a high pH or excessive active limestone.
