Welcome/ Susan/ Deerfoot

Hi Susan,
        Deerfoot is the common name for achlys triphylla along with the Vanilla
Leaf. There are two other species of achlys. One is also located in western
North American (and the third is located in Japan (japonica). Probably too
late to collect seeds now, but if you ever do that one is on my list. Be
willing to swap seeds with you. Are you into germinating and growing your
own plants?
