Kiwifruit Chieftain Male is an essential companion plant for your female kiwifruit vines, providing the necessary pollen for fruit production. This vigorous deciduous vine is known for its strong growth and abundant production of male flowers in spring, ensuring a successful pollination process. While it does not produce fruit itself, the Chieftain Male is vital for fertilizing female kiwifruit varieties, leading to a bountiful harvest. The vine can reach up to 9 m in length, making it ideal for training on trellises or arbors. Plant in a sunny, sheltered location with well-drained soil for optimal growth. Prune regularly to maintain shape and encourage healthy flowering.
