Schisandra

Chinese folklore says that Schisandra can "calm the heart and quiet the spirit", and it has a long history in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Schisandra, also known as Magnolia vine due to its ability to grow upwards in a creeping fashion, is a native to Northern China, Russia, and parts of Korea. An ornamental plant found in many fine gardens throughout the world, schisandra is a woody vine with oval pink leaves and bright red berries.

Of course when I saw this name on the side of the boat in Linslade I thought it was something made up from it owners names.
So today I am grateful for Google that puts me right very quickly on many things!
