    This beautiful zone 4a vine will reach lengths of 20 ft but I'm not sure what I enjoy more, the vibrant pink on new growth or the iridescent blue berries.

    That's beautiful. Is it rare around here?

    Very difficult to find at the local garden centers - I bought my first vine in 2011 and then a second vine in 2014 (I'm still looking for more but haven't seen any since then). Sometimes the green version is available but still hard to find, and not as pretty.
