Akebia longeracemosa is another stunning deciduous, fast growing climber. In the spring (April-May), up to 20cm long maroon-chocolate coloured flowers are hanging like necklaces and give off a slight sweet scent. The flowers stand out beautifully against its bright green leaves that are composed of five rounded edged leaflets. The leaves are known to have a slight purple tinge during the winter months. The Long-racemed Chocolate Vine is great for training against a wall.
- We have 20cm tall starter plants on offer (they will grow very fast next year).
