| This climbing vine develops flexible, fibrous stems that twine tightly around supporting structures. Leaves are broad, ovate, and leathery in texture, with a dull green surface and a lighter underside. Nodes produce tendrils that extend outward, allowing the plant to anchor itself efficiently to nearby vegetation or rock. Clusters of small, inconspicuous flowers emerge seasonally, followed by fleshy berry-like fruits. The fruits are spherical and smooth-skinned, containing multiple seeds. Surface gloss and density indicate maturity, with coloration shifting from pale green to deep purple as they ripen. |
