Description
The largest loop in the mystery climber's travels, a full circle of adventure before revisiting a fellow vine and beginning to annex itself and sprout more of its wondrous five-fingered leaves. The full name for this vine is Akebia quinata and the dark purple or creamy-colored flowers are pleasantly fragrant.

Terrific! The vine seems so delicate but so alive too. Love the colors.
Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
These are hearty plants...the delicate shoots turn into wood which is why they were used to weave baskets. There are so many curves and curlicues, circles and arcs....such geometry!!

Wonderful vibrant colors! And I love the flow of the leaves and vines! Beautiful! l/f!
Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
This vine certainly needs a good cut back (highly recommended) but perhaps its wildness comes from being untended. That loop is amazing!
