Vine very vigorous, climbing; shoots and petioles densely woolly,
whitish or rusty; diaphragm thick; tendrils intermittent (according
to Munson, rarely four continuous). Leaves with medium to large
stipules; blade small to medium, broadly cordate to reniform ovate,
frequently resembling those of a poplar, entire or in young shoots
and on young vines and sprouts usually deeply from three- to five-,
or even seven-lobed; teeth shallow, sinuate; petiolar sinus
shallow, wide, sometimes lacking; dull, slightly rugose above,
dense whitish pubescence below. Clusters small. Berries medium to
large, black, purple, green, or even whitish, thin blue bloom or
bloomless. Seeds usually three or four, large, short, plump, blunt,
notched; chalaza oval, depressed, indistinct; raphe a broad groove.
Candicans was described and named by Engelmann in his account of certain
plants sent from Texas by Lindheimer. In 1861 it was described by
Buckley who seems to have been unaware of the species having been
previously named.
