This is in a yard down the street from me, hanging over a fence. I'm pretty good with native plant identification, but gardens are a mystery to me. I'm in southwest Canada if that helps.

    Not my neck of the woods but I’ve never seen anything like this! Really cool plant.

    Akebia quinata, non-native

    Chocolate vine, *Akebia quinata*. Considered invasive in most of North America.

    I’m north of Seattle and this creeps over our fence from a neighbor’s yard. I’ve found it easy to contain and enjoy it.

    Chocolate akebia. Horrible spreader. It is very very hard to control…Alas, I have been fighting it now for close to 8 years and still can’t keep it from covering up more desirable plants
