A vine that is very popular as a climbing plant, but also in a hanging pot. It is distinguished by its immense and widely fenestrated leaves, which earned it its name " esqueleto " which means "skeleton" in Spanish. The oval to elongated leaves are very large, and can exceed 80 cm to more than 1 meter in adult cultivation. Despite its rapid climbing, it maintains a very interesting compact shape. Also, high ambient humidity and bright light will promote its growth.
