Acta Hortic. 753: 161–168. doi: 10.17660/ActaHortic.2007.753.17. In autumn, from September to the end of October, the mini kiwis are ripe and can be harvested. Whether the fruits are ripe is shown by the fact that – depending on the variety – they become reddish or light green and soft. It is best not to harvest each fruit individually, but always the whole vine. This way the skin does not break and the delicious fruits have a longer shelf life. Our mini kiwi is very robust when it comes to cold and can withstand temperatures down to -30° Celsius. Nevertheless, it is more than sensible to protect the soil a little from the cold with a layer of mulch now at the latest. In addition, it sprouts again early in the spring, starting in March, and the tender buds can be damaged by late frosts. If you cultivate your mini kiwi in a container – this is also possible – you should wrap it well with a protective fleece and also protect the soil from above with a layer of mulch.

All species are grouped into four sections (Maculatae, Leiocarpae, Stellatae and Strigosae). The first two sections (Maculatae and Leiocarpae) are certainly the most interesting for us. This is because the species assigned to them are most adapted to low winter temperatures. For example, the species or subspecies of the yellow and green kiwi fruit (Actinidia chinensis/chinesis var. deliciosa) is included in the section Maculatae. However, the species of the section Leiocarpae are the most resistant in terms of frost hardiness. These include the mini kiwi species of kiwi berry (Actinidia arguta) and the variegated-leaf hardy kiwi (Actinidia kolomikta).

L eaf rolling caterpillars: the damage they cause is quite minimal so often you won’t need to take action. They nest in the plant which can be seen by leaves being rolled and tired with silk.

Cats have been known to destroy vines and dig up roots in search of the source of the scent. [1] Commercial production
