Description:
Description and Variation: White bryony is an herbaceous perennial
vine, 12 feet long, or more. The thick root is a light yellow. The
simple leaves are somewhat triangular, alternate and broadly toothed.
The upper and lower leaf surfaces have small white glands. The long
curling tendrils, the flowers and the fruit arise from the leaf
axils. White bryony is monoecious (male and female flowers are found
on the same plant). The flowers are greenish-white, to one half
inch across. The fruit is a black berry, 5/16 inches in diameter.
