Description
The Kiwi family originated from a cross made by Sherry Long between a selection of the Dwarf Project Lazy family and Dino Eggs. Dwarf Jeremy’s Stripes was selected and named by Robin Bort. The regular leaf dwarf plants produce a very heavy yield of round 2 ounce (on average) orange fruit with green stripes with an excellent, well balanced flavor. Along with key contributor Robin Bort, Craig LeHoullier, Lee Newman, Justin Sieglaff, Bill Burke, Suzanna Dzejachok, Bill Yoder, Nicole Diana and Desire Sommers participated in the development of the variety, and Bill Minkey grew out the final selection.
