--001a11c1282c5e5559051c1baa50 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable In Halifax, I noticed a vine I had not seen before. It has a palmately-compound leaf with five leaflets. The leaf margin is smooth. My best guess is that it is Five-leaf Akebia (*Akebia quinata*). Some info at: http://www.carolinanature.com/trees/akqu.html Question to botanists on this list: =E2=80=8BThis Akebia is considered frost hardy, thus likely to survive our = winters. Is it commonly planted in Nova Scotia? Does it flower here? (I did not see any flowers on the specimen.) Could it be(come) a nuisance plant?
