This beautiful liana is commonly found in the woods of Brazil; its stem,
of a flexible and tenacious wood, furnishes slender, slightly pubescent
branches with deep parallel furrows. The leaves are alternate, with
winged petioles; they are composed of five folioles which are almost
sessile, oval-lanceolate, crenulate, irregularly bizugate. The flowers
are small, in spikes, situated on axes that are accompanied by leaflets
arising from the axillæ of the leaves. Calix with five folioles, corolla
with four petals, alternating with the folioles of the calix; eight
stamens; ovary with three uni-ovulate chambers. Capsule pear-shaped and
sharp, divided at its superior part in three tubercles. Root with long
fasciculate branches which are a little hairy at their extremity. We
employ the fresh root.
