Uslada is a medium-sized vine from the Actinidia genus that grows quickly and reaches a height of up to 8 m with proper care. Thanks to its compactness and frost resistance (down to -28 °C), it is perfect for both private gardens and small plantations. With a pollinator plant nearby, the yield can reach 5.4 kg of berries per bush, making it one of the most productive varieties.
The fruits of the Uslada variety are characterized by large sizes – approximately 3.9 g each – and a distinctive cylindrical shape. The skin has an olive-green hue with slight striping, while the pulp remains juicy and slightly elongated. The taste of the berries combines sour-sweet notes and a pineapple aroma, making them particularly attractive to consumers. The fruits ripen in early summer, usually by mid-August.
The Uslada variety is distinguished by high resistance to diseases, pests, and adverse weather conditions, including shaded areas with neighboring large plants. This allows gardeners to obtain a stable yield without frequent chemical protection interventions. Thanks to its characteristics, Uslada is considered an ideal choice for those looking for a reliable and tasty source of kiwi fruits.
