A native of China, the Kiwi Fruit is a deciduous vine of vigorous growth.
It is not unusual for a healthy vine to cover an area 10 to 15 feet wide, 18 to 24 feet long and 9 to 12 feet high. In cultivation it is supported on a trellising system.
The large, deep green, leathery leaves are oval to nearly circular and 7 to 10 inches in diameter. The large (1 to 2 inch diameter), white to cream colored flowers are somewhat fragrant and produced as singlets to triplets in the leaf axiles.
The oval, ovoid or oblong fruit is up to 2-1/2 inches long, with russet-brown skin densely covered with short, stiff brown hairs. The flesh, firm until fully ripe.
Kiwifruit will tolerate part shade but prefer a sunny location where they can ramble across some type of trellising system.
The vines should be protected from strong winds. Spring gusts can snap off new growth where it emerges from the canes.
