This akebi was growing in Alan Taft's backyard for over a decade and I dug it up a couple years ago. The trunk is over 6" wide which is huge for akebi. It fruited well this year.
We stuffed the pods with miso pork and pan fried. The fruit was not worth eating but the pod is a nice vegetable, somewhere between eggplant and bitter melon.
