Maianthemum amplexicaule
grows in forests in the mountains. Numerous white flowers are in a panicle at
the top of the stem. Plants are 18 to 30 inches tall. The broad leaves have several
parallel veins.
Compare to Maianthemum stellatum
. M. stellatum has fewer flowers in a looser inflorescence. Leaves of
M. stellatum are narrower. The two species are sometimes found growing
together.
