Mainly perennial climbing and shrubby herbaceous plants.

The flowers are actinomorphic (regular or radially symmetrical) and unisexual (monecium), are grouped in axillary racemes for males, solitary and axillary for females. They consist of a campanulate calyx with 5 lobes, a corolla with 5 petals united at the base. The male flowers have 3 stamens with coherent filaments or connate in a central column. The female flowers have an inferior and trilocular (3 spaced) ovary. The fruits (seed capsules) are ovoid (shaped) and similar to prickly berries. Taxonomy
