Actinidia arguta
Zones 3-7/Matures 3 yrs/20' vine.
The kiwi in the store requires semi-tropical conditions. This realtive is much hardier, taking temperatures below zero farenheit. The fruits are smaller, growing in clusters on a vine that can be trained to a trellis or porch or fence. Requires 3 months of cold after planting before it sprouts, so put it in a pot in the fall and leave it outdoors, or refrigerate. Typo in paper catalog: 25 seeds in packet, not 100.
25 seeds. C
