Kiwi ‘Hayward’ is one of the most popular varieties, due to its exceptional flavour and reliability. Cropping is moderate but the fruits are very sweet and have the best eating quality of all the existing green varieties. A reliable, late-flowering variety producing large, pale brown, moderately hairy fruits with thin skins. Large, heart-shaped leaves and fragrant, creamy-white flowers in early summer make this vine an attractive feature for a trellis or pergola. Height and spread: 10m (32ft).
Pollination: Female variety (requires a male pollinator).

Feed and water regularly until fully established, particularly during hot dry periods. Train the stems onto their supports. In autumn apply a mulch of well rotted manure or compost to the base of the plant.
Prune kiwi fruit plants in winter. In the first two years, prune plants to create an espalier framework of one permanent leading stem and two horizontal stems. Cut back the leading shoot to maintain it within the allotted space. Fruit is formed on the previous year's wood, and also on fruit spurs created by cutting back side shoots on horizontal stems to 3 or 4 buds. Overcrowded side shoots can be thinned out to allow light and air around the developing fruit. Plants may take 3 years before producing a full crop of delicious kiwi fruit.
