Anatoki Feijoa
✓ VerifiedNew Zealand (bred by Roy Hart)
Anatoki is a real, formally patented feijoa variety, granted US Plant Patent PP21,614, with priority claimed from New Zealand Plant Variety Rights Application FEI011, filed June 27, 2007. It was bred and tested near Nelson, New Zealand, and its patent application specifically documents it as an early-season variety, ripening for harvest from around April 11 under Nelson growing conditions, with average fruit weight of about 100 grams — genuinely large for how early it ripens, which was the specific, documented breeding goal behind the variety.
