Kiwi Notes
Kiwis are vigorous vines that require a sturdy support system. Most require a male vine to pollinize up to eight female vines. Issai is a self-fertile variety. We ship kiwis from February through late April, and then again late summer into fall. They are available for pickup February through late mid-November
