What is the likely cause for leaves turning white?

Probably cold damage, nothing to do it will soon sort itself out.


That's one thing I was sure it wasn't: in all the time I've had it the
weather has been really rather warm...
Unusually...


In fact, my actinidia suffered some cold damage this year, in the late
frosts, and rather than going white, the affected leaves just
shrivelled up. The remaining leaves now look as if they've been
nicely painted.
