Succulent members of this family primarily consist of vining caudiciforms, with a few stem succulents, a few leaf succulents, and one pachycaul tree. Common genera include Cephalopentandra, Coccinia, Corallocarpus, Dendrosicyos, Gerrardanthus, Ibervillea, Kedrostis, Marah, Momordica, Neoalsomitra, Odosicyos, Serygia, Trochomeria, Xerosicyos, and Zygosicyos. Too many variations exist to give detailed care instructions, but most will do fine with moderate water, part sun to broken shade, and a well drained soil. Many of the caudices in this family can be damaged by full sun, so avoid the hot afternoon exposures. Dormancy periods vary species to species, but most are summer growers.
