An individual plant can live 12 years, surviving periodic wildfire by resprouting from its long, slender rhizome afterward. [7] [8] The species could be confused with the similar Arnica latifolia, from which it can be distinguished by the leaves. The leaves of A. cordifolia are larger and heart-shaped. [9]
The leaves are glossy green, petioled, alternate, and circular to heart-shaped. They are generally 5–13 cm long. Common greenbrier climbs other plants using green tendrils growing out of the petioles. [5] The stems are rounded and green and are armed with sharp thorns. The flowers are greenish white, and are produced from April to August.
