Annanasnaya Female Hardy Kiwi

(Actinidia arguta) -Full Sun to Part shade–  Very productive, medium fruit size, later ripening than some, requires male for polination, zone 5-9

Late season.  Developed in Russia, known to be one of the most productive varieties.  Name means “pineapple-like” in Russian.   Steady producer and easy to grow.  Fruits are round-oblong, and very sweet.  Needs male for pollination.  Zones 5-8.

Kiwis for the North!  Not as large as the fuzzy kiwifruit, but with smooth, edible skin, much sweeter, and unbelievable flavor!  Taste almost perfumed with floral qualities.  Vines are breathtakingly beautiful with bright green leaves and red stems.  Trellis these in the garden or on your house for an edible and beautiful vine.  Can take shade but will fruit best in half-day to full sun (prefers afternoon shade if possible).  Vines grow fast and become very tenacious once established (‘Issai’ is somewhat smaller).   Needs sturdy trellis.   Male and female plants needed for pollination (except for ‘Issai’ which is self-fertile) but only one male needed for 8 females (keep within 50′ of male).  Space 15′ apart on trellis.

Issai Hardy Kiwi

(Actinidia arguta) -Full Sun to Part shade–  self fertile, semi dwarf, zones 5-9

Slightly smaller plant and self-fertile.  Fruits at a younger age than our other kiwis–often fruiting in their pots their second year.  Great for smaller trellises and where there is no room for a male as well.  Will produce more fruits with a male.  Green stems rather than red, so a little less showy but still gorgeous.  Fruits are longer and more “barrel shaped” than ‘Annanasnaya’, but still just as sweet and tasty.  Space 8′ apart on trellis.  Technically zones 6-9, but we’ve had zero issues with hardiness here in southern Indiana.

Ken’s Red Female Hardy Kiwi
