Akebia quinata alba. Has a wonderful perfume. We have it on one of
those ropes round the Tea Room lawn but it wasn't flowering when you
were here. It goes on flowering for ages.
Iochroma australis alba is Ray's suggestion.

Did you not see my suggestion that the first is Akebia quinata alba, or
am I just wrong?! ;-)

Sorry Sacha I missed your first suggestion, but it's not Akebia, the
leaves are single not composite,
When I first had it I was told it could be a form of Parthenocissus, but
I can't find it now.
Some time later after a lot of browsing
It looks as if it could be Actinidia arguta (TARA VINE, HARDY KIWI FRUIT)

Don't know that at all but what a similarity to the Akebia!
