Description
Grow your own kiwi!
These cold hardy kiwi plants produce sweet and nutritious bite-sized fruit — high in vitamin C and potassium. Similar to what you see in the grocery store, only smaller and without fuzzy skin. In fact, you can eat them whole!
Anna Hardy kiwi is a vine that requires a sturdy structure such as a fence, pergola, or trellis for support. Delicate white blossoms bloom on lustrous green foliage in late May. Established vines are vigorous and hardy to 25º below zero. These kiwi plants are pest and disease-resistant, cold-hardy, and heat-tolerant. Kiwi berries ripen in July through late September.
The Anna Hardy kiwi plant requires a pollinator for proper pollination and fruit production.
