Description:
Climbing over and hanging from other trees and shrubs. Vigorously producing new shoots. Although it first appears at ca. 1900 m., it is most common species between 1950-2200 m. Culms to at least 6-8 m., maybe more. Culm leaves persistent, overlapping next node about halfway. Sheaths slightly fused at base, covered with prickly hairs. Primary bud when developed rebranching, forming long trailing complexes. Primary bud subtended by 2-6 rather stout subsidiary branches, these not rebranching. Older culms quite large, but younger culms and branches viny at the tip. Internode solid, pubescent below the node. Phenology of specimen: Sterile.
