It is the sole species in genus Maurandella. It is a scrambling or climbing herbaceous perennial subshrub native to Mexico, the southwestern United States (California to Texas), Cuba, and the Turks and Caicos Islands, where it grows in a variety of relatively dry subtropical habitats.[1]

It has more-or-less triangular untoothed leaves and tubular flowers in various shades of pink, red or blue to violet with white bases. Unlike species in the genus Maurandya, the flowers have closed "lips".[2]
