raceme

Both species flower in the early spring, so keep an eye out for their hanging catkins and racemes as you appreciate these great native trees in the prime of their lives.

These gorgeous plants produce 6-foot-tall, towering racemes packed with brilliantly colored blossoms.

I know the difference between a raceme and a rhizome, I explicate photosynthesis, I can spell Scrofulariaciae.

A Victorian field guide, for example, describes Agrimonia in rather uncompromising terms: "Herbs with stipulate, pinnate, serrate leaves and terminal bracteate spine-like racemes of small yellow flowers."

Stigmas plumose.—Perennials, with rigid leaves and a narrow raceme or panicle.
