The plant is also known as wild grape, tree grape, Namibian grape, Droog-my-keel,[3] Jutta's Botterboom, and bastard cobas.

This species can reach 6 feet (1.8 metres) tall and has large shiny leaves. It is a deciduous plant. It grows in an arid region of summer-rainfall, and it loses its leaves in the dryer winter.[4]
