Climbing syrup that has an erect, somewhat contorted stem with dark brown bark that peels off in strips. The branches have a number of tendrils which enable the plant to cling on to supports. The alternate leaves which are opposite the tendrils and carried on a sturdy petiole, are plasma-tic and 3-5 lobed with a glamorous surface. The flowers are grouped in panicked, each flower having a 5-lobed calyx and a pale green, 5-petaled corolla. The fruit is a berry which varies in color; in the juicy pulp a few pear shaped seeds (pips) are immersed.
