Thompson and Morgan Actinidia Kiwi Arguta Geneva Plant Pot 15cm

Discover the delights of hardy kiwi varieties 'Geneva' and Kiwi arguta, both perfectly suited for UK gardens. Kiwi 'Geneva' is celebrated for its vigorous growth and early fruiting habit. Expect an abundant harvest each year of 2.5cm (1-inch) fruits that ripen to a delicious honey flavour, perfect for eating fresh or using in culinary creations. Under full sun, the fruits develop a reddish bloom and are typically ready to pick from September to October, offering a sweet autumn treat straight from the garden.
For a particularly hardy option, Kiwi arguta is an excellent choice. Surviving temperatures as low as -15 degrees Celsius, these vines produce small, smooth, exceptionally sweet fruits that require no peeling. Thriving in sunny, well-drained locations, established Kiwi arguta vines can yield up to 13kg of fruit.
These twining climbers not only provide delicious harvests, with creamy-white flowers appearing in summer, but also make stunning additions to trellises or south-facing walls.
How to grow: Plant in a sunny, preferably south-facing, spot. Fully hardy, tolerating temperatures down to -15 degrees Celsius. Keep the soil consistently moist, especially when the fruit is developing. Incorporate well-rotted manure or compost before planting, and feed annually with a balanced fertiliser. Moderate humidity is required; ensure good air circulation around the vines.
