Actinidia Kiwi Kit Pasha™ & September Sun™

Kiwi are dioecious and require cross-pollination of a male and female plant for fruit production. Male plants pollinate female plants but do not fruit. To make kiwi growing easy, we have done the research for you and have included 2 varieties in our Kiwi Kit, a male and a female, that work best together.

Both male and female vines in this kit are highly ornamental. They grow easily and vigorously, resist pests and diseases, and together produce an abundant crop of delicious and nutritious fruit, high in vitamin C. The vines grow thick and dense with foliage and bloom in small white flowers that attract pollinators, including birds and bees. The leaves can be cooked and eaten, mainly as an herb.

Actinidia September Sun™ Arctic Beauty™ (female) is a superior female variety that sets flowers in early summer followed by large fruits with smooth skin and a sweet kiwi flavor. Fruits ripen in August, with yields of 10 to 15 lbs.

Actinidia Pasha™ Arctic Beauty™ (male) does not bear fruit but can pollinate up to 8 female plants. Pasha is prized for its colorful heart-shaped leaves that are prettily splashed with soft pink, white, and green variegation.

Kiwi grows best in sunny to partly shady locations with average, medium moist, well-draining soil. Arctic Beauty varieties are cold hardy—to Zone 3—and like some shade, but too much shade will diminish foliage color. The plants are not bothered by pests or disease.
