Kiwi with no fruits
 
I have a kiwi in my greenhouse, and it grows very nice and looks as it
likes to be in a greenhouse in Denmark. But it has no fruits. Only some
small things that might be flowers.
See a picture at http://brittoghenning.dk/images/kiwi.jpg
We bought the kiwi for 3 years ago and we were told, that it was both
male and femail - no other kiwis nearby was necessary.
I now wander if this was right.
Can anyone tell by the picture, that this is a male-kiwi and therefore
produces no kiwis?

Thanks for help!

kiwis take five or six years to fruit.

Greetings!

I don't recognize the small bits as flowers. Do they ever open into
flowers with petals? Our kiwi's flowers are at least an inch across
and fairly showy. The kiwis we have are definitley male and female on
sepparate plants, so unless you have a different variety (sorry, don't
know what we have) you will need at least one more plant.
