Hi Puu
Was your Akebia hard to grow? I’ve never heard of them before or seen them until I clicked on the advert link. What sort of fruit does it have?
Good luck with your passionflowers next year.

the problem with akebias is not growing them, the problem is preventing them from consuming your property wholesale. it’s a great plant, and I recommend growing it, but your neighbors might get upset with you if you allow it to grow into their windows and all over their baby’s bassinet, which it is liable to do. get two varieties and the crazy flowers will bear tasty fruit.
