Kiwi - Actinidia deliciosa 'Jenny'

(New for 2021. Photos coming soon)

Kiwi prefer full sun and rich soil for the best fruit production, though it is tolerant of part shade. The ‘Jenny’ is self pollinating, but will produces more fruit when a male (Actinidia deliciosa male ) is present. Its blooms are yellow and very fragrant. The ‘Jenny’ is a hardy, fuzzy kiwi that is an egg shaped brown fruit with a sweet/tart flavor. Its fruit is very similar to what you would see in a store. Kiwi are fairly maintenance free once established.
