    We have two kiwi vines that give us the little, non-fuzzy fruit. However, something is munching crescent shaped pieces out of the leaves. We have put quarter inch mesh around the plant but the culprit is still getting in. Do you have any idea what is eating our plant or what to do about it?

    Thanks for the suggestion. I looked up leaf cutter bees and it said to put up cheese cloth, which I did. I now have several clusters of leaves growing and unmolested. I am hopeful. Thanks again. johnny
