Rhoicissus digitata is a climbing or trailing vine characterized by its glossy, palmate leaves that often boast five to seven leaflets, giving it a hand-like appearance. Its flexible tendrils allow for vertical growth against supports in shaded to semi-shaded forested environments. This adaptive growth strategy enables rhoicissus digitata to reach light and flourish in its native underbrush habitat.
