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?
