Cissus verticillata in FOI : 6 posts by 3 authors. This is not a wild one. This plant is cultivated. Thanks, … But to me images in FOI look similar to those posted by you at ID request-21102012-PKA2 Thanks …, The leaves of Prashant’s plants look different from the Cissus latifolia image here, but looks closer to the leaves of Cissus verticillata here. Can’t say more. There is no reason for Cissus verticillata being in India.
Pl. see discussions at ID request-21102012-PKA2 for it being Cissus latifolia Lam.
I further searched on net. I has been mentioned in India

. Location : Koh Chang, Thailand
Date: 09 December 2019
Elevation : MSL
Habitat : Cultivated
Which Vitaceae ??
I think some Cissus species.
Pl. check comparative images at Cissus in particular Cissus verticillata ? at Prashant ji’s images of Cissus verticillata in FOI I guess it is matching Yes ! .
Indonesian Climber: Could this be Cayratia, Vitaceae? Some Cordia species. Dis you observed any Tendrils? for narrowing down to Vitaceae. I too doubt whether this is a Vitacean species. The style is pointed and longer here! Is the style pointed and longer in Vitaceae? Neither I dont think that it can be a Boraginaceaen species (Cordia sp). Yes …, I too thought of Menispermaceae by looking at the aerial roots and absence (?) of tendrils. As far as I know, there is no tendril. Appears close to images at Cissus latifolia Lam., but I did not find its distribution in Java. Cissus verticillata (L.) Nicolson & C.E.Jarvis
But POWO does not give its distribution in the area. Though appears close as per
