''Dioscorea pentaphylla'' is a prickly vine that twines counterclockwise around objects and other plants. It may reach 10 meters in length. The alternately arranged leaves are compound, divided into 3 to 5 leaflets each up to 10 centimeters long. The plant produces horseshoe-shaped bulbils about a centimeter long. New plants can sprout from the bulbils. Flowers are borne in spikes. The vine grows from a tuber. Specimens may weigh 3 pounds and may be located over a meter underground.〔
The tubers of the vine can be cooked and eaten.〔(''Dioscorea pentaphylla''. ) University of Michigan Ethnobotany.〕
