Uses: Aeschynomene is also known as deer vetch or American joint vetch. Joint vetch is best suited for moist, fertile soils as it is much more tolerant of wet conditions than drought. It is known to have moderate shade tolerance. The plants can reach 3 to 5 feet tall when mature and are very high in protein and quality for deer. Aeschynomene's attractiveness will persist into the fall months until first frost, making it a favorite of bow hunters.
