Looks like pickles
pickening ans kiwi's
They're similar but sweeter, I'd say. Also they're fairly soft when ripe (which is part of the reason why they aren't commercially available: they'd get squished in transport).
Also, bonus: you can get cultivars which self-pollinate, so you don't have to go through the hassle of finding a male and female plant.
Hmm, I never thought about it, but you should be able to make wine from them... and after quick googling apparently people do make wine even from regular kiwifruit.
Self-pollinating means, they have both male and female flowers on the same plant. Typically kiwifruit plants are dioecious, which means each plant only grows one sex of flowers.
it's a vine. it's growing on where we previously had another grapevine plant that sadly wasn't doing quite well
the other grapevine is still doing fine; grapes are for eating and for making juice (haven't tried wine but it would probably taste nasty, it's not the kind that's usually used for making wine, Vitis labrusca)
