Description:
Issai Hardy Kiwi is a fast-growing, fruiting vine that produces small, smooth-skinned kiwis that can be eaten whole—no peeling required. In late spring, it develops fragrant white flowers, followed by a late summer to early fall harvest of sweet, grape-sized fruit. Its vigorous growth makes it ideal for covering trellises, arbors, or fences, adding both lush greenery and edible appeal to the landscape. It’s a great option for gardeners looking to grow unique fruit at home.
Standout Feature:
Self-fertile variety that produces smooth, edible-skinned kiwi fruit.
Interesting Fact:
Unlike most hardy kiwis, Issai can produce fruit on its own, though yields are often higher when planted with another kiwi vine nearby.
