Stem climbing, 1/4 in. thick, not tubercled. Leaves spreading, 1 1/2–2 1/2 in. distant, glabrous; petioles 4–5 1/4 in. long, sheathing to 1/2–1 1/4 in. from the top; blade 4 1/4–8 in. long, 2–3 1/2 in. broad, unequal-sided, obliquely oblong, shortly cuspidate-acuminate, cuneately rounded into an obtuse base; primary lateral veins 9–11 on each side of the midrib; no glands.
