Re: [nafex] miller kiwis


I was able to punch a URL into archive.org's "way back machine" to look at some old Miller Nurseries catalogs. They do not name the variety of kiwi that they sell, so I guess it could be anything. I'm hoping to use some of the already layered prunings to establish stool beds for nursery stock, thus my wanting to know the variety. I acquired some paw paw scion wood of Miller Nurseries provenance not long ago and thought I might be able to track down a cultivar name for that too. No such luck it seems. I know Miller was well liked by many and a reputable nursery, but I have always associated the selling of generic unnamed varieties with the likes of Burgess and similar high volume-low quality nurseries.
