This species is a perennial herb growing from a fleshy rhizome.〔(''Gloriosa superba''. ) Flora of China.〕 It is scandent, climbing using tendrils, the stem reaching 4 meters long.〔(''Gloriosa superba''. ) World Checklist of Selected Plant Families. 2011. Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.〕 The leaves are mainly alternately arranged, but they may be opposite, as well. They are somewhat lance-shaped and tipped with tendrils, and they are up 13〔 to 20 centimeters long.〔Thorp, J. R. and M. Wilson. (1998 onwards). (''Gloriosa superba''. ) Weeds Australia.

The margins may be quite wavy. The six stamens also are long, up to 4 centimeters, and each bears a large anther at the tip that drops large amounts of yellow pollen. The style may be more than 6 centimeters long. One flower may weigh over 2.5 grams.〔Selvarasu, A. and R. Kandhasamy. (2012).
