This plant is a climbing, trailing perennial vine. It produces yellow-green to brownish flowers.[1] It grows in disturbed forest habitat dominated by Metrosideros polymorpha. The area has a large population of feral pigs that damage the habitat. The plant also faces competition from introduced plant species such as molasses grass, holly fern, thimbleberry and Christmasberry.[3]
