Akebia

Akebia - Of these climbing or twining shrubs of the Barberry order, A. quinata is best known. It comes from China, hardy, is a good climber for a trellis, pergola, or wall. It is best to let it run over an Evergreen, being then better protected against cold winds.

The Japanese A. lobata is a climber of elegant habit, the leaves pretty in form, the flowers small, dull, and fragrant.
