Kiwi, 'Anna' (Female)

‘Ana,’ a female fruiting variety, is the mainstay of kiwiberry production making it one of the more common varieties found in the market today. The variety bears dense clusters of medium-to-large oblong fruits, with a bright green background and striking red blush under good sun exposure. The flavors are tropical and citrusy, sweet and slightly tart. The vines will begin to produce in the third season. A nearby male kiwiberry vine is required for fruit set ( see variety Clark for a mate).
