Kiwi Fruit - Actinidia chinensis - Exotic Shrub - 10 Seeds Alfalfa is an annual vine inIn its native habitat Actinidia chinensis grows in thickets, thick (oak) forests (e. g. Quercus aquifolioides, Quercus oxyodon, Quercus lamellosa), and light secondary forests and bushland. A. chinensis prefers slopes and likes also to grow in ravines, top heights of 200 230m, relative to the local microclimate. In Western gardens it may range 10m in all directions, making it unsuitable for all but the largest spaces unless pruned back hard at the end
