• Light: Bright light; protect from harsh direct sun with a shade net for the first 1-2 years

Kiwi is a strong-growing twining vine with dull greenish-brown fruit skin around bright green flesh. Kiwi plants are dioecious - separate male and female plants. This listing is the FEMALE dwarf grafted plant: it is the one that bears fruit, but it needs a male kiwi plant growing nearby to pollinate it. Without a male plant nearby, this vine will flower but will not set fruit. One male plant can typically pollinate around 10 female plants.

• Watering: Regular watering but never waterlogged - ensure good drainage
• Light: Bright light; protect from harsh direct sun with a shade net for the first 1-2 years
• Soil: Deep, rich, well-drained sandy loam soil; pH slightly under 6.9 gives best yield
• Fertilizer: Organic fertilizer through the growing season; avoid overwatering/waterlogging around roots
