Purple Five-leaf Akebia, Chocolate Vine
Akebia quinata
Clusters of maroon to purple, lightly fragrant flowers are produced in early spring among the newly emerging purple tinged foliage. The Five-leaf Akebia is an adaptable and vigorous, twining, semi-evergreen to deciduous vine with few pests or diseases. It can tolerate full sun to filtered shade and periodically moist to periodically dry soils equally well. The flowers may be followed by 3-4" long purplish fruit. For the best fruit production it is best to plant two different varieties or seedlings and some recommend hand pollination to ensure fruit set. Item# 11079
