Description
Fruit
Large, broad-oval fruit (~100 g) with brown hairy skin and bright green, juicy flesh.
Growth
Female cultivar, needs a male pollinator (e.g. Tomuri). Late-flowering and late-ripening.
Yield
Slightly fewer fruit than early cultivars, but large calibre and top market quality.
Notes
By far the most important commercial green kiwifruit worldwide; basis of nearly all export markets.
