Actinidia deliciosa,
commonly called kiwifruit, is a vigorous, fast-growing, woody vine which
typically grows 20-30′ but can fill a 200 sq. ft. trellis in time. Cultivars of
this species are now grown commercially in many parts of the world for its
fuzzy brown, edible fruits which have become a year-round supermarket staple.
Also grown ornamentally for its lustrous, dark green foliage. Slightly
fragrant, greenish-white flowers appear on year-old wood in late spring, but
are not particularly showy since they are commonly hidden by the foliage.
Fruits ripen in early fall (in the size of slightly flattened chicken eggs) and
have a tartly sweet taste that is reminiscent of a blend of pineapple, strawberry,
melon and banana. This species is dioecious (separate male and female plants),
so both male and female plants must be grown in order for proper pollination
and fruiting to occur. Grow in average, medium moisture, well-drained soil in
full sun. Tolerates light shade. This fast growing vine can be grown both for
its beautiful foliage and its fruit. Rapid growth habit makes it suitable for a
variety of cover-type uses such as trellises, arbors, patio overheads, fences,
or walls.
