History
Actinidia deliciosa is native to southern China, where it is declared as the "National Fruit" of the People's Republic of China. Other species of Actinidia are also found in India and range east to Japan and north into southeastern Siberia. Cultivation spread from China in the early 20th century, when seeds were introduced to New Zealand by Mary Isabel Fraser, the principal of Wanganui Girls' College, who had been visiting mission schools in Yichang, China. The seeds were planted in 1906 by a Wanganui nurseryman, Alexander Allison, with the vines first fruiting in 1910. [1]
