Actinidia kolomikta, or 'super-hardy kiwi' it is sometimes called, should be hardy to at least Zone 4, some sources say Zone 3. (Ref = Edible Forest Gardens vol 2)

So Bill, it should definitely set fruit and ripen in your area.

The hardy kiwis are extremely vigorous - plant them where you've got space. A single mature hardy kiwi vine can produce up to 200lbs of fruit per year! And the fruit is uncommonly delicious.

Cheers,
Ethan
