Slender woody climber to 3 m. high or more, unarmed.. Young branchlets glabrous, flexuous.. Leaves with (1–)2(–3) pairs of pinnae; one or more of the pinnae, usually terminal, sometimes modified to a tendril, or spirally twisted at base and bearing leaflets above; leaflets 9–18 pairs, narrowly oblong or oblanceolate-oblong, 0.8–1.6 cm. long, 1.5–4.25 mm. wide, rounded and usually mucronate at apex, asymmetric at base, glabrous, lateral nerves not or scarcely visible beneath.. Stipules minute, inconspicuous, to 1.5 mm. long, not divergent nor spinous.. Racemes axillary, solitary, often aggregated on short leafless shoots or occupying terminal parts of shoots, 3–6 cm. long (not including the 4–10(–35?) mm. long peduncle), glabrous.. Flowers dark purple or red, on pedicels 1–1.5 mm. long.. Calyx glabrous, 1–1.5 mm. long.. Petals 3–3.5 mm. long.. Stamen-filaments 4–6.5 mm. long..
