Actinidia arguta are relatively new to commercial markets. The kiwi berries are sometimes referred to as mini kiwis or kiwi grapes. Kiwi berries can be eaten whole- like a large grape! The berries have a smooth skin that is edible and are even sweeter than Fuzzy Kiwis. They are very high in Vitamin C.

Kiwi vines can be planted in shade or full sun. They thrive for us in the Pacific Northwest but are also extremely hardy, up to Zone 4. One hardy male is needed to pollinate up to eight hardy females.
