Hey! That's a great idea. I have just planted one male and one female Kolomikta so don't have much experience to go by. However, the male seems much more vigorous at this point and the suggestion of grafting a female branch onto it is a great idea.

Any suggestions on what sort of graft to do in this situation?

Dave,

the answer is thst not evrryone grafts...but evetyone can put a plant in the
ground!

Grafting part of a female over to a male branch is much more efficient

Altrrnatively if one only has two plants--one male,one female--it would bd
wothwhile to work over part of thr
male to a producing female

I am intrigued that nobody answered the question I posed last week - why not
just graft on a
branch of a male to one's female kiwi, rather than devote an entire
(non-bearing) plant to the
fertilization function? Much more space-conserving, and perhaps even more
efficient given
the close spatial relationships of male and female flowers.
