It is a warm-climate species valued by gardeners for its attractive palmate foliage and its ability to rapidly cover trellises, pergolas, and fences with lush green growth. Each seed offers an opportunity to grow a unique, fast-developing vine suited to tropical and subtropical gardens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis vine performs well as an ornamental screen or accent on sturdy supports and produces small aerial bulbils along the stems as it matures. Its underground tubers have traditional culinary uses in regions where the species is established, and the twining stems make an interesting addition to tropical plant collections.
