Hi Richard,

What is your situation with your kolomiktas? Male plants aren't supposed to produce fruit as far as I know. Are there other vines nearby? Was it mislabeled for sex or type?

Our gorgeous "male" kolomikta lost its elegance (spectacularly variegated

I planted my A kolomitka at the edge of the woods where it only received
morning sun and it performed exceedingly well.
