Kiwifruit grown in Daghestan

 

 

 

A biologist, Timur Gabibov, who works on plant breeding, has recently succeeded in cultivating a new variety of kiwifruit adapted to the local climate. The vine of this new variety could withstand temperatures down to -25 ° C, whereas the classical varieties are sensitive from -15 ° C.

 

 

 

The distribution of this new variety is not foreseen at the moment. In its "experimental platform" the scientist grows other unusual plants for Daghestan such as arbutus, quince, sea buckthorn or palm.
