I bought 2 cuttings of a kiwi variety I
wanted to add last winter/spring. I only used one of them, the other I kept in
my refridgerator crisper drawer, and I occasionally checked the paper towel to
make sure it didn’t dry out. I checked the cutting a month ago (to see
if I should keep it or not) and almost a year later it still shows green to the
scratch (cambrium). S. Hills Saint Clair Shores, Mi 48080 From:

cuttings getting frozen is dessication. Swenson Red should be actually hardy to
-25 to -30, but freezing unrooted cuttings can draw the water out of the cells.
Keep them wrapped in moist (not drippy) paper in a plastic bag someplace where
they will stay near 32 (0 C) and they can be held for as much as a year, if not
more. I just received a good number of
Swenson grape cuttings &I'm
