大型落叶藤本；小枝、叶柄、花序和萼片密被乳白色或淡污黄色直展的绒毛或交织压 紧的绵毛；小枝往往在当年一再分枝，着花小枝长10-15厘米，直径4-7毫米，大枝可达 40毫米以上；隔年枝大多或厚或薄地残存皮屑状的毛被，皮孔大小不等，茎皮常从皮孔的 两端向两方裂开；髓白色，片层状。叶软纸质，卵形至阔卵形，长8-16厘米，宽6-11 厘 米，顶端短尖至短渐尖，基部圆形、截形或浅心形，边缘具硬尖小齿，腹面草绿色，幼嫩时散被糙伏毛，成熟后很快秃净，仅余中脉和侧脉上有少数糙毛，背面粉绿色，密被乳白色或淡污黄色星状绒毛，侧脉7-8(-10)对，横脉发达，显著可见，网状小脉较疏，较难观察；叶柄短且粗，长1.5-3厘米，被与小枝上同样的毛。聚伞花序简单，1-3花，被与小枝上根同但较蓬松的毛被，花序柄长5-10毫米，花柄长3-5毫米；苞片钻形，3-4毫米；花直径2-3厘米；萼片2-3片，淡绿色，瓢状阔卵形，长约9毫米，两面密被绒毛，外面毛被松而厚，内面毛被紧而薄；花瓣顶端和边缘橙黄色，中央和基部桃红色，倒卵形，长约14毫米，边缘常呈餐蚀状；雄蕊极多，可达240枚（♂花），花丝纤细，浅红色，长5-7毫米，花药黄色，长圆形，长约1毫米；子房球形，密被白色绒毛，花柱长3-4毫米。果柱状卵珠形，长3.5-4.5厘米，直径2.5-3厘米，密被不脱落的乳白色绒毛，宿存萼片反折，果柄长达15毫米；种子纵径2毫米。花期5月上旬-6月上旬，果熟期11月。
产浙江、福建、江西、湖南、贵州、广西、广东等省区。生于海拔250-1000米山地上的高草灌木丛或灌木丛林中。模式标本可能采自福建。
本种与绵毛猕猴桃A. fulvicoma var. lanata和中华猕猴桃A. chinensis两种比较近缘。以叶形和毛被的厚薄等特征论，它与前一种近；以植株的体型和果实的大小及果皮上的毛被特征论，它与后一种近。有区别于两者的特征是毛被作乳白色，很厚很密，而且交织压紧；果实从幼果到成熟果都被有白色绒毛。
本种果实仅略小于中华猕猴桃A. chinensis。据一些有野外经验向志的意见，这种比中华猕猴桃还要好吃。所以，凡是栽培或正在计划试种的单位，值得考虑把这一种列入试种计划之内。
