My new Chocolate vine.

My chocolate vine is healthy and doing well. I repotted it as soon as I got it and it's already getting new leaves. I've bought from this nursery before and have been very pleased with the plants.

I love the Akebia vine. It is a lovely plant that can change a dreary view into a welcome site. It's spring flowers are an added bonus!
