About 6 or 8 years ago I bought some Kiwi fruit in Tesco and after eating
them I went all schoolboy again and planted the seeds/stones(?). They grew
into sturdy plants and over the years put on a lot of growth. This year
for the first time they are flowering! I was reconciled to their never
doing that. Now I'm wondering if they may fruit too!
Has anyone here got one that fruits?

Take a good look at the flowers because you will need a female and at least
1 male to get a fruit set, there are hermaphrodite forms on the market but
you are unlikely to get one of these from seed.
If you have a matched pair then fruit set can be quite good and some years
you will have gluts, as most things it depends on the sort of summer we get!
