Re: [SG] Welcome/ Susan


Hello Susan and welcome
        I could not help but notice in your lovely description the native Achlys
triphyllium. Having Deerfoot grow naturally for you is to be blessed with
one of the most attractive of the three species in existence. Are the
stands very large on your property? What species of Trillium occur there
for you? It all sounds very lovely.
