Kiwi flowering

University City, MO(Zone 6a)

I have been trying for years to get my kiwi's to produce fruit. After buying two plants I discovered after a year that I had purchased two males. I ordered a female which didn't flower (neither did the males) the following year (year 3) so I ordered a another variety of female for the following year (year 4). So last year (year 4) both females flowered but about 3-4 weeks before the males and the female flowers were long gone by he time there was any pollen. This year it looks like the same pattern.

I have a strange request...does anyone have male kiwis that will be blooming soon that would be willing to share male flowers? I'll be happy to pay the postage or send a SASE. I'll do the pollinating by hand. I'm not sure where to post this request so I'll try some of the other forums as well. Thanks loads.
