Actinidia arguta 'Issai' - Issai Mini Kiwi

Issai Mini Kiwi is a contained fast-growing twining deciduous vine known for being self-fruiting. Its small grape-sized fruits have edible skin and taste similar to the larger fruited relatives, but slightly sweeter. Its attractive deep green foliage turns yellow in fall, and its fragrant greenish white flowers dangle in clusters in spring.  Grows best in full sun and moist well-drained soils. 

MAINTENANCE NEEDS: Medium Maintenance.  Water regularly. No serious pests or diseases.  Needs frequent pruning, including annual winter and summer pruning.  Issai needs less pruning due to restrained growth.

 LANDSCAPE USES:  Accents or Group Plantings, Borders, Food Gardens, Walls and trellises, and Containers.

COMPANION PLANTS: Blueberry, Lemon Balm, Geranium
