Actinidia deliciosa, A Fruit Of Many Names

One of my favorite fruits, this is. Blessed with a rich and illustrious history over it's many-thousand year journey to me from Southern China, it has gone by many names:

Macaque peach
Macaque pear
Vine pear
Sunny peach
Wood berry
Hairy bush fruit*
Unusual fruit
Wonder fruit
Strange fruit
Chinese Gooseberry
Melonette

But we know it by the marketing name given by it's successful New Zealand export companies: Kiwifruit.

* This is my favorite, for some reason. I am using this name for it from now on.
