Hi, My Kiwi vines *have 3* is over a year old and is vigorous. Each of them must be a good 8 feet. I have one male and two female. I don't see any flowers. WHen can I expect them? Is there anything I can do to encourage them? I'm craving homemade KIWI :)
Depending on how they are grown, the big Kiwis can take several years before they bloom. My brother grew some for more than 10 years and never had any blossoms. It helps to have them in full sun; shade will reduce the number of blossoms. The small grape or hardy Kiwis will usually bloom the first or second year after planting.
Damn! This is bad news. They are in a bit of partial shade but they have grown high enough to have majority in sun. THe base isn't though. I really don't want to wait 10 years. BRB heading to Safeway to stock up on Kiwis LOL
