To identify standard kiwis, you have to observe the flowers:

Probably no surprise that the females produce the fruit! You only need about 1 male for 4 females, unless your vines are very long (100').
Another thing to consider - where was that kiwi fruit grown? There are hybrids available for different environments -- unfortunately no standard kiwis are going to survive outdoors in Idaho. But indoors ... there are some interesting choices if you can keep the vines contained and illuminated late spring through autumn.
