Could not resist, got 2 kiwi vines at Sam's last week -
Male and female (says they need both)
1- hardy kiwi berry Meader (male)
1 hardy kiwi berry Cordifolia (female)

I want to plant them in large pots to go up over a wrought iron arbor. I was going to put a handful of Aquasorb to the potting mix as they say to keep moist.
Should I plant them both in the same pot? How close do they have to be to pollinate?
Anyone ever grown them around here?
