| Lore | The native range of Actinidia deliciosa is China, however cultivars of this species are now grown commercially in many parts of the world. Known particularly for its brown, fuzzy-skinned, edible fruits, it is also grown for its handsome, ornamental foliage. The genus name Actinidia comes from the Greek word aktis, meaning ray in reference to the plant's growth which radiates like the spokes of a wheel. Specific epithet refers to the delicious fruit. |
