Re: Question about climbers

Becky....
My neighbor across the alley has Kiwi vine.....they are about 8 years old....set fruit every year....they do not cover up stuff very well.....lots of woody vine showing.... rather pretty though. Her problem has been that they always go for the high ground.....She came close to electrocuting herself trying to get them off the main power line to the house. they have grown up the line every year...looks great but the electric company takes a dim view of it as the vines a quite heavy. They are planted on the east side and get full morning sun.
We are Zone 8 and kiwi grow well here.

Any of you had any experience with the silver Lace Vine?

Or growing the Kiwi Vine? I know you have to plant male and female for the fruit of Kiwi. But before I invest in both of them, just wondering what your experiences were.

Thanks Becky from Iowa
