What is the likely cause for leaves turning white?


There's a good chance that all you have to do is enjoy it. Is it an
Actinidia Kolomikta
(http://www.bbc.co.uk/gardening/plants/plant_finder/plant_pages/16.shtml)?
If so, this is absolutely normal and the leaves will shortly go pink as
well.


Thanks. I followed the link and that looks just like it. I shall indeed
sit back and enjoy it :-)

Don't feel foolish The reason I thought of that immediately is
that it isn't the first time I've been asked about this strange white
blight affecting a climber's leaves.
