Dioscorea pentaphylla is a perennial climbing plant producing annual stems from a perennial rootstock. These stems scramble over the ground or twine into the surrounding vegetation. The plant is widely cultivated in tropical areas of Asia for its edible root. It is also harvested from the wild because its slender tubers render its cultivation more difficult.
