Akebia trifoliate
5 SEEDS!!
Ooo LaLa...how scrumptious would it be to have a garden scented in the sweet smell of Chocolate with just a hint of vanilla?
Mother Nature, in her profound wisdom, has seen fit to create a rare vine that produces masses of intricately designed Chocolate color flowers that also smell like Chocolate! How fabulous is that?
Chocolate vine grows an edible fruit with a sweet tapioca like pulp. In Japan, the rind is used as a vegetable and stuffed with rice and meats and then deep fried. To produce fruit, you will need to grow a second species from the Akebia family for cross-pollination. The leaves from Chocolate Vine are used to make a tea.
