Actinida arguta ‘Issai’

We’re excited to offer this little-known and extremely cold hardy relative to the common fuzzy kiwi. Also known as Kiwi Berries, Grape Kiwis, and Siberian Gooseberries, Hardy Kiwis are easy to grow in even the coldest winter climates. While these snack-sized kiwis taste just like regular grocery store kiwis, they are small and abundant on the vine and completely fuzz-less, which means you can eat the whole fruit, skin and all!

Our Hardy Kiwi selection is completely self-fertile, so only one vine is needed to produce fruit.

Cold hardy to USDA zone 5a, or to -20 degrees Fahrenheit.
