Species of this genus are twining, woody climbers with simple alternate leaves. They are dioecious, meaning that Template:Plantgloss (functionally female) and Template:Plantgloss (functionally male) flowers are borne on separate plants. Inflorescences are racemeose, often growing from the woody stem. Flowers have three or six petals and 6–12 sepals arranged in whorls of three. The fruit are drupes, roughly Template:Botanygloss or obovoid in shape.[3]Template:R/superscript[4]Template:R/superscript
