Actinidia

Actinidia - Climbing summer-leafing shrubs of the Camellia order from Japan and China, thriving in warm soil. They all have climbing or twining stems, and bear waxy white flowers. Some grow freely in cold, poor soil, and are excellent on pergolas or climbing up old tree stems and bold fences. A. argenta is a very vigorous climber in its own country, and grows freely here. A native of Japan and the Amur region and quite hardy. A. chinensis is also a fine climber of vigorous growth, the fruit large—about the size of a walnut—and of agreeable flavor. A. Henryi is a tall climber; native of the high mountain forests of China. A. Kolomikta is a very striking plant in its foliage, occasionally half the leaf being whitish. It is not the strongest grower, and is better on walls in sunny places. Manchuria and Japan.
