Description

​​Kangaroo Paw Green originated from a cross between Budai Torpe and Cherokee Green made by Patrina Nuske Small in 2005 named Witty F1. Kangaroo Paw Green is an early-season regular leaf dwarf and a sibling of Kangaroo Paw Yellow, Kangaroo Paw Brown and Kangaroo Paw Red. The plants yield abundant small round amber fruits with green flesh when ripe, and they have a sweet refreshing taste. Plants have sturdy stems, robust rugose foliage, and reach about a metre+/ 3-4 ft by end of season. This variety was selected and named by Craig LeHoullier.
