    Actinidia arguta produces fragrant greenish white flowers followed by fruits with smooth skin with a taste similar to but often sweeter than the kiwis found in grocery stores of Actinidia deliciosa. '74-49' is a superior variety producing good crops of large, green, sweet and delicious fruit. It is one of the earliest ripening Hardy Kiwi varieties.
