A climbing or scrambling herb. It can grow to several metres long. The stems can be hairy. The leaflets are rounded. They are 3.5-9.5 cm long by 2.5-7.5 cm wide. The leaf stalks are 2-11 cm long. The flowering stems are erect. They can be 4-10 cm long. The flower is yellow but often green when young. The flowers are 1.2 cm long. The fruit are narrow pods which are slightly curved. They are 4-6 cm long and 8-9 mm wide. They are constricted between the seeds. There are 2-6 seeds. The seeds are brown or red. They are oblong and 6-7 mm long by 5-6 mm wide.
Leaflets 3, 6.5–9.5 × 5–8 cm, rounded-obovate, retuse or rounded but often mucronulate at the apex, broadly cuneate to a narrowly rounded base, appearing glabrous but with scattered appressed short bristly hairs on both surfaces; venation rather raised and reticulate; petiole 6–11.5 cm long; rhachis 1–3 cm long; stipules c. 2.5–3 × 1.5 mm, ovate, bilobed at the base, multinerved.
