Kiwi Vine - Arctic Beauty Female, Actinidia Kolomikta - Female, is a great climbing plant that has lots of appeal! This vine is grown for its heart-shaped foliage, which opens purple and matures to bright green. It is marked with splashes of white and pink. Actic Beauty's flowers, though fragrant, are inconspicuous since they are often hidden by the foliage. One male plant will pollinate 6 female plants. Grapelike berries, produced by the female plant, are edible and ripen in the fall. Train Arctic Beauty Female to cover a fence or arbor. It can grow to twenty feet, provides great texture, and adds a wonderful appearance to any landscape. Plant in sun to partial shade. Attracts butterflies. The Arctic Beauty Kiwi tends to make no fruits unless you have other cultivars or more than three plants - it's a hit and miss to find if you have male plants or female plants because you need one of each to produce fruits. This species is dioecious (separate male and female plants), and the male plants reportedly have better leaf variegation than the female plants. Greenish-yellow, 1" long, edible fruits appear on female plants in early fall. (Click Merchant link below for full description)
