Grow your own delicious fruit with this set of two Actinidia 'Jenny' kiwi plants. Unlike many other kiwi varieties that require both a male and female plant to produce fruit, 'Jenny' is uniquely self-pollinating. This means you only need this one variety to enjoy a successful harvest of sweet, juicy kiwis right from your own garden
These plants are delivered in 15cm pots with a current height of approximately 40cm. As a vigorous climber, the Kiwi 'Jenny' features attractive, heart-shaped green leaves with a soft, hairy texture and produces charming cream-colored flowers in the summer before the fruit begins to develop.
Why choose Actinidia 'Jenny'?
-
Self-Pollinating: No need for multiple plants to get fruit—this variety does all the work itself, making it ideal for smaller gardens.
-
Homegrown Harvest: Produces egg-sized, fuzzy-skinned kiwis that are packed with Vitamin C and much more flavorful than store-bought alternatives.
-
Decorative Climber: With its large, lush foliage and red-tipped stems, it is a beautiful ornamental plant for covering pergolas and fences.
-
Vigorous & Productive: A fast-growing vine that, once established, provides a heavy crop of fruit that can be harvested in late autumn.
Care Instructions:
-
Light: Requires a warm, sunny, and sheltered spot to thrive and ripen its fruit. A south-facing wall is ideal.
-
Support: As a strong climber, it needs a sturdy support system like a pergola, heavy-duty trellis, or wires.
-
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the flowering and fruiting period. Do not let the roots dry out.
-
Soil: Prefers fertile, well-drained, and slightly acidic soil.
-
Pruning: To maximize fruit production, prune in late winter to remove old wood and again in summer to keep the long leafy shoots in check.
