  • Kiwi plant named `Tomua`
    Patent number: PP11065
    Abstract: A new and distinct kiwi plant of the species Actinidia deliciosa (A.Chev.) C.F. Liang et A.R. Ferguson is described. The cultivar results from a controlled pollination of A. deliciosa DA02.sub.-- 03, a male selection of unknown parentage, and the female A. deliciosa `Hayward`, the most widely grown cultivar of kiwi worldwide. Both named parents (DA02.sub.-- 03 and `Hayward`) are unpatented cultivars. The new cultivar is distinguished by its early harvest time (about 4 weeks ahead of `Hayward` in NZ), fruit appearance similar to `Hayward`, and moderate plant vigor.
