kiwi plants for sale in kerala

Kiwi or Chinese gooseberry (Actinidia deliciosa) is grown widely in New Zealand, Italy, USA,
China, Japan,Iran,Pakistan, Australia, France, Chile and Spain.

Kiwi vine starts bearing at the age of 4-5 years while the commercial production starts at the age of 7-8 years. The fruits mature earlier at lower altitude and later at high altitudes because of variation in temperature. Large sized berries are harvested first while smaller ones are allowed to increase in size. After harvesting, the fruits are rubbed with a coarse cloth to remove stiff hairs found on their surface. Hard fruits are transported to the market. Subsequently, they lose their firmness in two weeks and become edible.

Kiwi plant varieties : Since kiwi is a dioecious plant, it bears pistillate and staminate flowers separately.  Commercially grown important pistillate and staminate cultivars are:

Abbott : This is an early flowering and early maturing cultivar.  The oblong, medium sized, fruits are covered with dense hairs.  They are very sweet in taste with lower ascorbic acid content and medium titratable acidity.

Allison : Fruits resemble those of Abbott, except that these are slightly broader in proportion to its length.  The petals of its flowers are overlapping and crimped along with margins.  It is an early ripening, heavy bearer and sweet in taste.  Ascorbic acid and titratable acidity are on the lower side.  This variety is most suited for Himachal Pradesh.

Bruno : This cultivar requires comparatively less chilling period.  The fruits are tapering in shape towards the stem end.  They are longest among all the cultivars.  The fruits is dark brown having very dense, short and bristly hair, highest in ascorbic acid and titratable acidity. The bearing is very heavy.

Hayward : Most popular cultivar or the world, Hayward is comparatively shy bearer with a tendency of biennial bearing.  The fruit is broad and flat, being much wider in relation to length.  It is superior in flavour with high sugar and ascorbic acid content.  It requires comparatively more chilling hours.

Monty : It is a late flowering cultivar but fruit maturity is not late.  The fruits are oblong, resembling those of Abbot and Allison.  Being a highly prolific bearer cultivar, sometimes it needs hand thinning for obtaining good sized fruits.  The fruit is somewhat wider towards blossom end with higher acidity and medium sugar content.

Tomuri : It is a good pollenizer for Hayward and Monty, the late flowering kiwis.  Flowers appear usually in groups of 5.

 Allison : It is also used for pollenizing different cultivars.
