Kiwifruit Gold Seedling
$19.75
Seed selected from a very sweet yellow fruited variety. We have found these seedlings to flower within 3 years from seed and exhibit low chilling requirements They will not come true to type but may be worth experimenting with to see if you can come up with your own special selection. Remember they are dioecious and hence seedlings may be male or female, you will be able to tell if they are male or female after they flower. It can therefore be a good idea to purchase 3 to increase the likelihood of receiving at least one female. They also make an excellent rootstock for grafting kiwifruit varieties onto.
