    Any pics? Have you planted it out - could it be shock? is it just droopey - then lack of water? is it droopey with a touch of brown to the edges - sun or wind scorch? is it droopey with a touch of black to the edges - frosted. Really need more info.

    Hi and welcome to the vine

        Are the leaves - still leaf shaped with a brown edge or soggy looking?

        I think the plant might be having a sulk one from being moved/repotted, two suffering from weather/ condition change. Really hard to say without seeing it. Sorry

          When posting click on the go advanced button and you should see the picture icon

          Photos will probably need to be scalled down to be able to post them.

            Kiwis are very vulnerable to frost on their new growth, could that be an issue where you are? It was probably in a sheltered location at the garden centre so may have got a shock if it went straight outside.

              My kiwi had its leaves frosted which died. Some had the growing tip protected and came back, other buds which hadn't opened were fine
