Ooo LaLa...how decadent would it be to scent your garden in the sweet smell of Chocolate?

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!' Plus, the leaves from Chocolate Vine can be dried and used to make tea. 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 and plant near each other.
