Tiny, rosebud flowers
grow on every vine.
Hiding brightly in the green
waiting for their time.
So far, every bud we find
is female through and through.
Just like squash, we need
a male to pollinate them too.
Is this the year we eat one?
Will fruits grow big and sweet?
Or will we lose each tiny bud
to beetles we can’t beat?
Tiny, whitish flowers
grow thick on the vine.
Hiding softly in the green
waiting for their time.

Do they not need a male pollinator like ‘common’ kiwi vines need?
Yep! When we planted them, we bought a male for each row… so we thought!
Well, that makes sense. By the way it is written, it sounds like you were expecting male flowers on a female plant.
Oops! Nope, I’ll have to take a look at that again!
Oh, it is no problem. It is just the way I read it.
