Actinidia deliciosa 'Herma'

This self-fertile variety produces very large fruits from a young age that are comparable in size to the well known female variety 'Hayward' and approximately twice the size of Jenny. The green flesh is sweet and juicy with an excellent flavour. The plant is an impressive climber with attractive heart-shaped green leaves and masses of creamy white flowers that produce a wonderful scent. The plant is very hardy and once established crops reliably.

Pollination: Self-fertile.

Kiwi fruit can be grown with ease in the UK provided they are grown against a south facing wall with maximum shelter from prevailing winds. They can crop very heavily outdoors in the south and are very useful for covering walls, fences and pergolas. When the growing conditions are favourable it is possible to harvest up to 13.6kg (30lb) of fruit from a single vine when fully established. Kiwi fruit are rich in vitamin C and antioxidants and when picked fresh from the vine, the fruits are deliciously sweet and have a much higher nutrient content than imported fruits. The vines are vigorous and require plenty of space. They should be planted 3-4.5m (10-15ft) apart. 

 

Please note - where we quote a height on despatch, this is measured from the base of the pot.

 

For better establishment we strongly advise using Rootgrow when planting (as recommended in RHS planting guidelines).
