akebia (uh-KEE-bee-uh) - n., any of five climbing shrubs (genus Akebia) with purplish flowers, deeply divided leaves, and purple berries.
Native to east Asia, where its seeds are eaten and woody stems used for baskets etc., now cultivated elsewhere as an ornamental. The name comes from Japanese akebi, the name for a species native there.
Thanks, WikiMedia!
And that's another week of WTF WWF -- back next week with the usual mix before returning to this theme.
