Actinidia Deliciosa 'Jenny'. Kiwi Vine.
The Kiwi Vine Actinidia Deliciosa 'Jenny' is a very attractive and vigorous growing climber. A popular cultivar it is one of only a few self fertile varieties which produce large fruit. It has large attractive heart shaped leaves mid green in colour tipped with red. Small clusters of both male and female creamy white bell shaped flowers are produced around June time. The egg shaped bristly brown skinned fruit containing delicious lime green flesh rich in Vitamin C can be harvested in Autumn.
Perfect as an alternative to conventional climbers, they are easy to grow and self fertile, so no pollination partner is necessary to produce fruit. Happy in containers if space is limited and great for growing on a trellis arch or pergola.
Grown in a sunny, sheltered position they will produce bountiful crops of delicious sweet fruits even in the UK.
Caring for your Kiwi Vine is easy, remember they are a fruit tree so they will need feeding. Feed with a balanced fertiliser after growth starts in spring when the risk of frost is gone and through the growing season until the Kiwis start to ripen.
