Wild Sarsaparilla

The Sarsaparilla flowers grow under a canopy of three sets of five leaves. You have to peek under the leaves to see the flowers. The root of this plant can be used to make a root beer similar to the root beer make by a True Sarsaparilla root. The Wild Sarsaparilla is a member of the Ginseng family.

Where I found it : In the woods
