Arctic Kiwi - Male 'Arctic Beauty', Female 'September Sun' & 'Red Beauty'

$60.00 (each)

Male and female plant required. Male: ‘Arctic Beauty’ is a stunning landscape plant, with its green foliage flushing white, then pink, then deep rose during the flowering period. Plants will arrive with no variegated leaves, but as they mature and flower, the foliage will begin to change colors. One male tree can be used for up to 6 females. Suited for Zones 3b -7. Female: ‘September Sun' is a female arctic kiwi. It is a good match with the 'Arctic Beauty' male. It begins producing fruit in the third year after planting. The fruit ripens late August to September. The delicious fruit is pale green when it is ripe. It is a short season plant suitable for regions with short summers. It should be planted in a wind sheltered location where it gets at least half day sun. It is hardy for zones 3-8. ‘Red Beauty’ Arctic Kiwi (Actinidia kolomikta) is a high-yielding female variety valued for both its ornamental foliage and edible fruit. In spring, the leaves take on a striking white coloration during bloom, gradually shifting to soft pink and red tones through the summer and becoming even more vibrant in fall. The berries are smooth-skinned with a gently sweet, mild kiwi taste. For fruit set, a compatible male plant—such as Arctic Beauty—must be grown nearby.
