And breathes in peace the lily of the ;âWoROSwoRTit. N just such places as the I,ily-of-the-valley loves, its handsome cousin, the False .Solomon's Seal, is found. In rich woods, either low wtxids or on sheltered hillsides, this pretty wild may Ik- found. It is extensively dislriliuteil in Xorth .\inerica, ranging fiom Canada to South Carolina and westward to Kansas and .\ In May in the South, in the Northern latitudes in June, the terminal panicle unfolds, and the small white open one by one. Delicate little flowers they are, pretty individually and showy in cluster. The whole plant is elegant in its habit. The stem, rising from a rather long, fleshy, white nxitstock, is leafy to the top. The leaves are lily-like, on very short stalks. In late .summer they are often discolored by a fungus, a Septoria, which them to beojme streaked with brown in an odil fashion. The berries are very pretty, bright red or sometimes pale red sjieckled with darker color. The habit and leaves of the plant are much liki those of the .-Solomon's Seal, hence the popular name. False Spikenard is another natne for Vagnera Racemosa, jirobably iKcause of the of the flowers to those of the Spikenard. Aralia ^.
