'''''Maianthemum racemosum''''' ('''Treacleberry''', '''False Solomon's Seal''', '''Solomon's plume'''<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.ct-botanical-society.org/galleries/maianthemumrace.html | title = Solomon's-plume (False Solomon's-seal) | publisher = Connecticut Botanical Society}}</ref><ref name="fna"/> or '''False Spikenard'''; [[synonymy|syn.]] ''Smilacina racemosa'') is a species of [[flowering plant]] in the family [[Ruscaceae]], native to [[North America]]. It is a woodland [[herbaceous]] [[perennial plant]] growing to 50-90 cm tall, with alternate, oblong-lanceolate [[leaf|leaves]] 7-15 cm long and 3-6 cm broad. The [[flower]]s are produced on a 10-15 cm panicle, each flower with six white [[tepal]]s 3-6 mm long blooming in late spring. The plants produce green fruits that are round and turn red in late summer. It grows from cylindrical [[rhizome]]s about 0.3 m long.<ref name="fna">{{cite web | url = http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=1&taxon_id=242101759 | title = Maianthemum racemosum | work = Flora of North America}}</ref> ''Maianthemum racemosum'' grows in [[bicoastal]] habitats in North America up to elevations of 7,000 feet. The most robust and profuse occurrences of this plant are typically found in partial shade and deep, moist, soft soils. In the western part of North America an example typical habitat would be in a shaded ravine or riparian corridor with common understory associates of ''[[Dryopteris arguta]]'', ''[[Trillium ovatum]]'' and ''[[Adiantum jordanii]]''.<ref>C.
