Akebia quinata is a plant native to Asia, appreciated for its decorative foliage and fragrant flowers. The five-leaved akebia is a so-called “voluble” climber, whose stems wrap around a support.

Its rapid growth allows it to quickly reach 10 m in length! Be careful, it can sometimes become invasive. The chocolate vine appreciates rich, fresh and well-drained soils with no PH preference. It flourishes in sun or partial shade, ideally with a western exposure.
