Sam,That is true. that is why you want to plant males at the same time you plant females otherwise you will wait 10 or 12 years fro fruit.
Can't have fruit without flowers. A few kiwi growers I've spoken to around here ( eastern Ma ) don't get flowers until a good 4-5 years; same with pawpaw. I have gotten fruit on ' Itchi' and 'Great Wall' Kaki Persimmons on 3 year old grafted trees.
