Do you have the variety called Jenny, if not you need a male and a female plant :(

RHS:Pollination
Male and female flowers are produced on separate plants, so both are needed for fruit (borne on one-year-old wood, three to four years after planting). One male can pollinate up to eight females.

i'm back the plants never had any labels on them so i cant tell you if they were jennys or not .

a freind has one as well but his is a lot smaller then my mums one , i think they brought them roughly the same time from the same garden centre but now they want to know if theres a difference between the male an female plants ?? and how long before they flower .
