Our Feedback
I just wanted to say how delighted I am with the service I received with my recent order! It is very heartening to know in this time of postal strikes and often lacklustre customer service in so many of our industries that there are still those whom perform to a very high standard. I am 100% satisfied.
24 hours or less from finding your website to delivery!
Thank you to all concerned!

Supplied as a pot grown plant approximately1 - 2 feet (30 - 60 cm) tall including pot.
This Product is Available Now.More compact in habit than other varieties of Baby Kiwi, 'Issai' also has the added benefit of being self fertile.
After flowering in June, small green fruits dotted white mature over the Summer ready for harvest late September / October.
Whilst the fruits are fairly small yield can be prolific - with a mature plant producing literally hundreds of fruits, and up to 1000 is not unusual. Smooth skinned, the fruits do not need peeling either.
There has been some, limited research to indicate that even though the Issai is self fertile, having a Weiki can increase yield. This isn't something that we have tried and tested but may well do!
