Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This is the species that brings you kiwifruit! A. deliciosa is a large, rampant, decidous vine that needs a structure or large tree to climb on and a lot of space in which to sprawl. It has brown fuzzy stems, large, rich green, heart-shaped, textured foliage, pure white flowers centred with masses of golden stamens and the fuzzy brown berries that we call kiwifruit. Full sun and rich soil are the best for fruit production though tolerant of part shade. Plant a male ('Tomori') and a female ('Hayward') to get fruit.
This popular female variety of fuzzy kiwi was introduced from New Zealand. It bears large, sweet, attractive fruit. Often used commercially because of its productivity and form. Ripens late October.
