The kiwifruit is a vine. Scientifically speaking, the kiwifruit, like grapes, passion fruit and other fruit crops, is a large deciduous vine, so it is a vine. The fruit is elliptical in shape, yellow-brown in early stages and reddish-brown when ripe, with a densely fuzzy skin and edible flesh, which is bright green and contains rows of black or red seeds. The kiwifruit is so named because it is eaten by rhesus monkeys.
