A hardy climber with painterly foliage and bite-sized edible fruits.
Unleash colour and character in your garden with Actinidia kolomikta, the Arctic Beauty Kiwi Vine. Celebrated for its extraordinary variegated leaves brushed with creamy white and soft pink, this climber turns any wall, pergola, or trellis into a living work of art. In late spring, it produces clusters of delicate, fragrant white flowers, followed by smooth, sweet mini kiwis on female plants. Exceptionally cold-hardy, this perennial vine thrives where many fruiting plants cannot, making it a standout choice for both beauty and productivity.
