Stems terete or angled with spinose processes, arching and scrambling over other vegetation, often drying blackish grey; young stems densely pubescent with somewhat antrorse, simple uniseriate eglandular trichomes 0.5-1 mm long, the trichomes drying white, soon glabrescent; new growth densely white pubescent like the young stems, glabrescent; bark of older stems green to greenish brown. Sympodial units difoliate or unifoliate, the leaves not geminate. Leaves simple, occasionally with a few dentate teeth near the base, the blades (2)4-10(12) cm long, (0.8)1.8-4.5(5.5) cm wide, elliptic to narrowly obovate, widest at the middle or in the upper half, sometimes thick (described as succulent), but more often membranous, concolorous; adaxial surfaces sparsely pubescent with simple 3-4-celled uniseriate trichomes or almost glabrous, the trichomes denser on veins and midrib; abaxial surfaces sparsely pubescent to glabrous like the adaxial surfaces, but the trichomes denser along the veins; principal veins 5-7 pairs, drying paler abaxially; base abruptly attenuate along the petiole; margins entire to sparsely toothed near the base; apex acute to narrowly acute; petiole 0.5-2.5 cm, sparsely pubescent with antrorse simple uniseriate trichomes like those of the stems and leaves.
