Sea grapes are a type of vine plant that can reach a height of 8 meters, but most specimens are only over 2 meters tall. The leaves are large, round, and leathery, with red midribs, and the leaves turn entirely red when they age. The bark is smooth and yellow. Purple fruits resembling grapes are produced at the end of summer in clusters. Sea grapes are drought-resistant, but they grow better when the soil is kept moist. They cannot withstand cold weather, can tolerate shady conditions to some extent, and have high resistance to salt, so they are sometimes planted to stabilize beaches.
