Description
Kiwi 'Jenny' is the most popular Kiwi because it is the only self-fertile, hardy kiwi variety. It makes a impressive climber, producing heart shaped leaves with red tips and bunches of small white flowers during the summer.
From September the delicious sweet and juicy furry brown, egg shaped fruit are produced and are best eaten when freshly picked off the vine when their texture is at their best. Perfect for a large greenhouse or growing over an arbour.
Grow Kiwi in full sun in moist but not waterlogged acid soil. They are vigorous climbers so will need suitable supports.
