Moonseed

Moonseed is a family of climbing shrubs, recognized for their distinct, often heart-shaped leaves and dioecious nature, meaning individual plants are either male or female. These vines flourish in tropical and subtropical regions, utilizing their twining stems to ascend trees, which supports their growth towards sunlight, crucial for their survival in dense forest environments.
