HARDY KIWI . actinda arguta. WISH YOU COULD GROW TROPICAL FRUIT BUT YOU LIVE IN A CLIMATE THAT RECEIVES HARSH COLD WEATHER? ACTINDA ARGUTA IS DIFFERENT THAN THE OTHER BIG FAMILY OF KIWI VINES KNOWN. THIS WONDERFUL FAST GROWING VINE CAN BE GROWN ANYWHERE IN THE U.S. OFTEN REFERRED TO AS THE SIBERIAN KIWI BECAUSE IT IS WINTER HARDY TO MINUS 25 DEGREES! OTHER KIWIS ARE TROPICAL AND WILL NOT TOLERATE FREEZING TEMPERATURES. THIS EASY TO GROW VINE IS ORINGINALY FROM CHINA, JAPAN, RUSSIA AND KOREA. ALL OF THESE AREAS HAVE COLD FRIGID WINTERS. THE VINE IS SIMALAR TO A GRAPE VINE, ONLY WIDTH IS ABOUT 1/4 INCH TO ABOUT 1/2 INCH. THE VINES GROW TO ABOUT 20 FEET LONG, BUT CAN BE EASILY TRIMMED TO A SHORTER LENGTH. IT IS VERY COMMON TO GET 100 LBS. OF FRESH DELICIOUS FRUIT FROM YOUR KIWI VINE. THE PLANT REQUIRES A MALE AND A FEMALE TO GET POLLINATION. FOR EVERY 6 TO 9 FEMALES, ONE MALE VINE IS ENOUGH TO POLLINATE THEM ALL. THE LEAVES ARE LARGE GREEN HEART SHAPED GROWING ON A REDISH VINE. THEY LOOSE ALL THE LEAVES IN THE WINTER, SPROUTING OUT FRESH AND NEW EACH SPRING. FRUITS REQUIRE A COLD DORMANT SEASON TO SET THE BUDS. SO IT IS BEST TO LEAVE THEM OUTSIDE TO GO THRU THE WINTER. THE FRUIT IS FORMED IN CLUSTERS FROM THE SIZE OF LARGE GRAPES TO THAT OF PLUMS. THE BEST THING ABOUT THIS HARDY KIWI VARIETY IS THE FRUIT IS SKINLESS. YOU DO NOT NEED TO PEEL THEM. THE FRUIT HAVE THE SAME COLOR AS THE ONES FOUND IN STORES. THIS KIWI IS SWEETER THAN STORE BOUGHT. ONE OF THESE SMALL KIWI HAVE FIVE TIMES MORE VITAMIN C THAN A ORANGE!
