Kiwiberry - Red Female

$29.00 ($29.00-$46.95 choose a size)

The name Hardy Kiwifruit comes from the fact that this species can tolerate very low winter temperatures and at the same time doesn't require a lot of winter chill, so can be grown over a wide climatic range. Pollinates with a regular male kiwi fruit. Hardy kiwifruits are smaller than normal Kiwifruit, an inch or so long. Fruits are borne in clusters and have smooth, edible skins so can be eaten just like grapes. The hardy kiwifruit has the same emerald-green interior and similar flavor to the grocery store kiwifruit, except that hardy kiwifruits are sweeter.

Kiwifruit - Male

The plant is dormant just now but is looking good in the place where it is planted. I chose this plant because it suits my climate in winter and should produce plenty of blossom for our bees as it is supposed to service up to 8 female vines.

We have two of these guys and they are growing well. Can't wait to get some females planted as my family love kiwis.

Kiwifruit - Male

My first male plant died too and my conclusion was lack of water - I see others have had this problem. I have given the female more water and it is looking healthy
