Nice leaf. Mine are always plain green.

You could put up a trellis, or attach strong wire for it to grow along. Actinidia will wind itself around anything - drainpipes for instance- and the branches can be quite heavy. Hope this helps.

I,m not sure if you would call this a shrub or a tree .
It looks beautiful on the wall of the house , the leaves are half pink and cream ,
this one is special to me as my Aunt bought it for me on her last visit from Australia , I have taken 3 cuttings from it and they are all growing well in different parts of the garden , it 14 yrs . old
