Vincent Fuzzy Kiwi has a lime green flesh with a texture similar to strawberries, pungent aroma and tart flavor.  These are the kiwi we find in the grocery stores. The fuzzy kiwi is a  very low chill fruit variety that only requires 100 hours of chilling to produce fruit.  Pollinate with the Male Fuzzy Kiwi. One male will pollinate up to eight fuzzy female kiwi plants. Kiwi vines are 1-2 feet in height when shipped. Important planting tip: Planting depth must be where roots flair out. Do not plant any deeper they will not survive. 

Fuzzy Kiwi Fruit - Actinidia deliciosa

Large, frost sensitive, vine hardy to 10 degrees Fahrenheit, although young leaves and shoots of all species can be damaged at temperatures below 31 degrees Fahrenheit. Overhead frost protection will protect vines from late spring frosts. This very vigorous vine requires a sturdy trellis (minimum 4x4 posts). Fruit is fuzzy brown on the outside, lime green inside with tiny black seeds. A female and a male vine are needed. Hot or cool climates. Excellent keeper in refrigeration.
