VAT is not chargeable on these plants.
This variety is closely related to the traditional kiwi fruit which is found in shops, but it has the advantage of a hairless skin so does not need peeling. Fruit is about 4cm (1.5ins) long and is extremely high in vitamin C, delicious and very sweet. Very hardy and makes a beautiful vine but for good fruiting grow in a warm site, preferably against a wall and protect the young growth and flowers against late frosts. Self-fertile.
Kiwi Fruit, Issai is Self Fertile.
