Michurin likely in the late 1800s or early 1900s. He created Anna, along with many other varieties, with the goal of breeding high-yielding plants of better quality that are more cold hardy. The flavour is reminiscent of pineapple so he named it Ananasnaya after the genus \u003cem\u003eAnanas (\u003c\/em\u003ewhich includes pineapples) and 'naya', a feminine suffix in Russian. Shortened to 'Anna' in North America, this variety remains commercially popular for its easy growth and propagation and reliable crops. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy We Grow It: \u003c\/strong\u003eAnna produces kiwis with a distinct red blush (with enough sun exposure) that are sweet with a little tartness. The flavour is tropical with hints of pineapple and citrus. These vigorous vines require a trellis or other support to climb across. Make sure you have a suitable support in place, a mature plant can produce over 50lb of fruit in one season!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Silver Creek Nursery Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"1 year plant","offer_id":52784541991223,"sku":"C-KWH-AN-1","price":21.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0065\/7552\/1839\/files\/20200923_144247_3cf3bb73-f795-4b24-b07f-a42838fe0959.jpg?v=1785786912","url":"https:\/\/silvercreeknursery.ca\/products\/anna-hardy-kiwi-female-bareroot","provider":"Silver Creek Nursery Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
