It's Time to Play.....Name That Plant

We went to a concert this weekend in Kokawa. On our way we encountered this giant viney plant over running a field. There was so much vine, that it looked fluffy and soft. You wanted to just climb on it. It was kind of weird though because the vine was uplifted by poles and it appeared vacant underneath. In fact it was uplifted a good 6 feet off of the ground. Can you guess...... what is this plant? See picture below for answer.
A very hungover yet genki Noel shows us that this plant is indeed a kiwi vine. It had tons of kiwi hanging below the vines. Hence the 6 foot undercrawl is needed to collect the fruit. We couldn't believe it! I had no idea this is how kiwi is grown. If you guessed correctly, give yourself a good pat on the back and a nice delicious treat. Sorry that's the best prize I can give you (actually you are giving it to yourself).
