Cissus hypoglauca is a large woody vine. The name water-vine comes from the fact that the woody sections of the vine may be cut into sections and the sap that drips from the sections may be drunk as water. The leaves are palmate, and are usually arranged in a group of five. Leaves elliptic or ovate in shape, slightly toothed or entire.
The placement of a cluster on the vine is similar to that of a tendril, [4] as both develop from the same uncommitted primordia, the anlagen. The grape bunch position on the side of the stem opposing a leaf is unusual for inflorescence of the plants. [3] The typical shape of a cluster depends on the grape variety. [5]
