June 2019: Woo! Hoo! In this photo…blurry, baby kiwis!
Baby kiwis
Apparently, I focused on the the one top-left of center. Three in this photo!
It has taken two years for this perennial plant to mature and bear fruit. Also, we have had significant rain fall this season. The vines have grown over ten feet long. Hopefully, the vines will meet the arbor between the house and garden shed…may not be this year. (I would have planted if closer, if I had understood how it grew.)
May 2018: Last year’s great expectations deflated. Here we “grow” again! Our perennial kiwi vine has a strong start for this season. It is front and center in the photo below with four vines. So far, the longest one is over three feet long.
May 2017: Yesterday, we were pleasantly surprised to find potted “Hardy Kiwi” for $12 at Cox’s Plant Farm. I thought kiwi grew on trees like apples or cherries. It is a vine that prefers a trellis to support perhaps 100 fruit. We’ll let you know how we did.
