Actinidia deliciosa — originally the Chinese gooseberry before New Zealand growers rebranded it for export in the 1950s. The color refers to the cross-section of a ripe green-fleshed kiwifruit: a saturated, slightly yellow-shifted green with the optical brightness of small black seeds suspended in translucent flesh. Brighter than apple, sharper than pear, with the instantly recognizable graphic quality of the cut fruit.
