This handsome, clump-forming perennial member of the Asparagus family is widespread in rich forests throughout North America. Formerly known as Smilacena racemosa, it was introduced to European gardens by 1640 as “False Spikenard.” Other common names include Treacleberry, Feathery False Lily-of-the-Valley, and Solomon’s Plume. The unbranched, somewhat zigzag stems arise from large underground rhizomes and the large, shallowly furrowed leaves, which resemble true Solomon’s Seal, spread horizontally in two rows. This hardy species has no serious insect or disease problems and is best massed in naturalized plantings or woodland gardens.
