''P. maculatus'' is a trailing perennial herb with a large, woody taproot. Leaves are trifoliate, oval, up to 8 cm (3.2 in) long, with small urcinate (hooked) hairs.

==Uses==
This bean is often used as livestock forage, and it is cited as a gene source for disease resistance in the lima bean (''P. lunatus'') by Germplasm Resources Information Network. The Tarahumara peoples of the Sierra Madre Occidental in Chihuahua use the roots medicinally and also make glue from the shoots.〔Pennington, CW. 1963. The Tarahumar of Mexico, their material culture. University of Utah Press, Salt Lake City〕 The species is also occasionally grown as an ornamental.〔(Backyard Gardener )〕
