Excuse me to write in English. I come from the Netherlands and my English is better than my French..... I have a kiwi-collection in the Netherlands with differtent female and male varieties. One of my female varieties is the yellow-fleshed Italian variety 'Soreli'. For this variety 'Soreli' I am looking for a good male pollinator. There is a mismatch in flowering period with the male 'Belen', wich flowers to late. I saw that this is discussed here before, as some of you have the same experience in France. Actually, I am looking for the French male variety 'PolliChina'. But I cannot find any French webshop to buy such plant ! Can anybody here help me for: - a place where I can buy a plant of 'PolliChina' ? - rooted or unrooted cuttings of 'PolliChina' ? I appreciate your help ! |

It's not 100% sure that Pollichina will be a good pollinisator for Sorelli. It was supposed to pollinise "Belle de Chine" that has been no longer commercialised in France for several years. So I think it's impossible to buy either "Belle de Chine" or Pollichina now. I have a Pollichina but last summer, it got an unknown disease and all leaves fell. I am anxious to know whether it will survive this year thanks to the large amount of Bouillie Bordelaise that I spread end of November. If it dies, then I will be stuck with my 4 "Belle de Chine", if it starts again at spring, then we can see how I can duplicate this tree. Maybe do an exchange with Sorelli as all my trial of graft of Sorelli have failed, but remember that maybe Pollichina will not work as a pollinisator. What does the Sorelli producer say about the choice of a suitable pollinisator ? Message modifié 1 fois ; la dernière fois le 13/01/2020 18:34 par François du Perche |
