Description

The Sweet 'n Solo' Kiwi is an exciting, self-fertile breakthrough for home gardeners, eliminating the need to plant both a male and female vine for fruit production. This vigorous, deciduous vine produces an abundance of medium-sized, egg-shaped fruits with smooth, brown, fuzz-free skin and sweet, flavorful green flesh . A single plant yields a generous harvest of delicious kiwis, ready to pick in autumn. Its large, heart-shaped leaves create a dense, lush canopy, making it an attractive and productive choice for covering sturdy trellises, arbors, and pergolas.
