Family Actinidiaceae

Actinidia arguta 'Anna', or 'Anna' female hardy kiwi, is a vigorous and ornamental fruiting vine, cultivated for its abundant production of small, smooth, sweet, seedless fruits, which are eaten fresh with the skin. Its vibrant green deciduous foliage creates a lush and decorative screen, perfect for quickly covering pergolas, trellises, or fences. It blooms discreetly in spring with small, fragrant creamy-white flowers, which require the presence of a male plant such as 'Andrew' for effective pollination. 'Anna' offers excellent hardiness for the Quebec climate and is generous with fruit once well established. It combines edible appeal, covering effect, and seasonal beauty, making it a climbing plant of choice in edible or ornamental gardens.
