The Blake Kiwi is a vigorous and robust cultivar of the popular Actinidia deliciosa, commonly known as kiwi fruit. This deciduous vine features large, heart-shaped leaves and is renowned for its delectable, fuzzy brown fruits. The vines are highly ornamental, fast growing to 15'-20', and can add a touch of lush greenery to any garden, with the added bonus of producing a bountiful harvest of delicious kiwis. It's an ideal choice for trellises, pergolas, or arbors.
The fruits produced by the Blake are medium to large in size, featuring the classic brown, fuzzy exterior. The juicy, emerald-green flesh inside is sweet and tangy, offering a delightful combination of flavors. Blake Kiwi fruits are not only delicious but also packed with essential nutrients and vitamins.
To ensure proper pollination and fruit set, plant at least one male vine for up to eight female vines.
Kiwi thrives in USDA hardiness zones 7 to 11. This range ensures that the plant can withstand temperatures as low as 0°F (-18°C), making it suitable for a variety of climates.
