This member of the
Menispermaceae family was
given this name
by Inez Verdoorn & Troupin in 1962. It is found in north west
South Africa, northern Namibia, Zimbabwe and Botswana,
growing in a well drained soil with some water and some sun. The
vines will grow up to ten meters. The tiny flowers are
greenish-crème coloured.
When detachment from the soil is caused by animal
disturbances, it grows a survival root reaching up to ten meters
down.
