Kadsura
The plant is dioecious and therefore requires two plants to bear fruit.
Kadsura is cultivated as an ornamental plant because of its beautiful, shiny, dark green leaves and the bright red fruits, which are edible. It is dioecious, which means it has male and female flowers on different plants. Since we only have one plant in the greenhouses, it will never be able to get fruit.
