Raintree Nursery's Kiwi Growing Guide

I need to figure out how to run the vines in the winter.

In the back of my head I am thinking about the raspberry bush that got squished flat and froze to a rock under the snow. That one did better then all others so I thought.

Does the green vines (new growth) want to he left flat on tbe ground to get buried in the snow?

If I leave them strung up will the cold freeze off the green vines every year?

I should just stick to raspberries lol.

I was given a cold hardy kiwi and she was like JUST PLANT IT OK MINE IS DOING FINE.

The issue is I am in growing zone 3 and the kiwi is zone 4. Some people are adamant that it's futile to grow anything zone 4 here.

Others are reporting, some things are doing OK if you make sure the roots are buried deep and under mulch. And then bury it in the snow.


Lol.

KILL THE MUSIC. DISTRACTING.

great video, super informative

Great video! I bought a kiwi from someone still in its pot and I have no idea what species I have. I need help identifying!

This was such a helpful video :D

The house we just bought came with a variety of plants and none of them seemed super well taken care of (other than one). We had a plant I nicknamed "the beast" because it was HUGE and grew like crazy. None of us knew what it was and the "plant ID app" my in-laws had was clueless as well. Went out to prune back the beast before it complete overgrew the 8ft fence. Much to my surprise, I found two teeny tiny fuzzy kiwi! It's a kiwi plant...here in the middle part of England. I haven't found too many fruits, and I'm thinking (based on how the rest of the garden was) that there wasn't the attention to pruning & training that the plant probably needed to thrive.
So now I'm doing my research to see what it would take to get the plant to prosper. But also, I'm thinking that it's in a prime location of the garden, and I'm not really sure that I like kiwi fruit that much lol.

Very informative. Thank you!

Lovely.

What a superb video! You are fantastic!

i have a couple kiwi vines in my garden but they have never flowered. Been here 6 yrs. They have decent sun exposure (northern california - marin county) but no flowers. They are planted in the ground and have a trellis supporting them. anyone have any suggestions? I’d greatly appreciate it, thank you!

Do they take longer to come back after winter and why does the bark come off after winter on the male plant?

How's the propergation done.

how you can identify male or female kiwi?

💔

wow i learned alot in a few minutes time. got my first kiwi going here (deliciosa) i hope it will do well in holland where the weather is not always wonderfull (usualy not :P) thanks for the video. Ps i realy love your Hat.

Ya know..ya don't have to peel the "fuzzy" kiwi's either

Nice video. Cheerful and honest.

I got some "Issai" kiwiberry plants, they've been productive since year 2, grown in pots.. The "fuzzy" kiwi's.. Grown 2 yellow ones from seed. Been frost resistant, and growing prolific.. One in the ground, one in pot, the one in the pot is 10 times less in size. Come spring, it will join the other one. The Kiwiberries will join them in the full ground too. Has been a great journey seeing them form from seed to sprout to vine. Not even fond of the taste ;)

hi how can you tell the differance between a female or male before they even flower plz

Clever lady :) Thank you very much!

i never liked kiwis as a fruit but i like how fuzzy they are OwO

I love your lips!

I love love love this video. Where are ya located!?

You are an amazing woman, great at what you do.

Love your video! I have a 6ft tall fence about 8 yards long and double sided. is this enough room for a female plant to grow on?

thank you so much , now this was a good and informative , GOD BLESS YOU.

Do kiwis tolerate black walnut trees if root zones overlap?

There aren't any videos on how to properly remove them from a tree

I have an 8ft x 8ft garden bed with 5 blueberry bushes in it. There is a timber canopy structure erected over it with shadecloth to keep harsh summer sun off them. Do you think growing a female kiwi fruit vine up that canopy so the vine can replace the shadecloth eventually (in providing summer shade) would be a good fit? My concern would be if an 8ft x 8ft canopy is big enough for the vine and also whether the vine might outcompete the blueberries to the point they suffer?

Thank you i thought my female was slow to flowering

Love all your videos, so informative,to the point and you are always so cheerful. Thank you so much

Your kiwis look a lot like pears

Hi Thanks for this info I've got Kiwi but Iam waiiting for the rite time to transplant it to the port ❤️🙏🇿🇦

How can you tell a male from female plants?

Hi 🙋🏻‍♀️ I only have one plant, I didn’t know you needed two. It’s never flowered so I don’t know whether it’s male or female. Can I eat the leaves please or dry them for tea. It’s the fuzzy one and do you know the leaves nutritional value. Thank you xx

How do you reccomend growing these in a small space for the Issai, I have a really tall tree that they could run up and chain link fence.

Video was perfect except the volume on the music going up and down. Great info

Will these grow on other trees? And in the fall would you just cut it down and bring it in if it’s left in a pot?

Hey thanks for your information, I am starting to grow kiwi, and this information really help..

Ur new subcriber from Indonesia 🙏✌

Can I plant the vine against my wooden garden fence with plastic trellis to train it ? Oh does it produce alot of leaves as I would like to use it as a working privacy screen ?

I live in South Florida Zone 9b. I recently got my kiwi vine from fast growing trees. I feel as though when I first got it in the mail and put it in full sun it's leaves got super crispy and I was afraid it died. I don't know where to put it and I'm afraid the South Florida sun is too hot and burns them. Please help!

So how do you know which is a male vine, and a female vine...........

Pruning kiwi seems to be different than any other fruit. Have you considered doing a pruning video? Thanks!

Dear friend, genuine repentance and recitation of those words will protect you from calamities:

"F a l u n  D a f a is Good" and "Truth, Compassion, Forbearance is Good".

F a l u n  D a f a  (or F a l u n  G o n g) is a spiritual cultivation practice for mind and
body that is widely spreading in the world, it is based on the
principles of the Universe:

真 Truthfulness
善 Compassion
忍 Forbearance

It includes gentle exercises and meditation. It helped millions of people
to regain health, peace of mind and obtain spiritual fulfillment. Since
1999 this peaceful practice has been brutally persecuted by the CCP (Chinese communist party) in
Mainland China. More than 100 million people around the world practice Falun
Gong.

This is so informative! Thank you!

Is one of the kiwis you described the same as the Chinese Gooseberry Kiwi?

This was very helpful! 😃🥝

Wow

Nice

Very thorough ! Thank you!
