Kiwi plants
Brian, I dont know anything about kiwi. Mine died before I got them in the
ground. Instructions said plant them inside first, and they never came out of it. However, if yours are dormant and you prune them back, I dont know why they wouldnt be able to be transplanted. I would put them into nice, clean, big plastic pots until you can put them into the ground. Good luck. Dwayne "Brian Watson" wrote in message ... "SugarChile" wrote in message hlink.net... The birds ignore them, and in the 10+ years I've grown them, I have had no insect problems and no disease problems. I don't spray at all, the only care is to prune in late winter. It's rather remarkable, now that I think about it. There aren't that many plants that don't have *any* problems. We had a horrendous drought last summer, and the vines did wither towards the end, but in a 'normal' year they don't need supplemental water. Are they hungry? Unfortunately, I've got to move a trio of kiwis (one male, two females) that were at my house when I moved to it and I don't know whether they do best on starving or feeding. My plan is to prune them back a bit then move them to the new location on a south-facing wall (in England). Does that sound sensible? -- Brian "I know about kittens and knitting. Will that do?" |
