In spring -- April to June -- the evergreen vine flowers with these fragrant white trumpet-shaped 4-petaled flowers. The vine grows about 6 to 12" high, creeping through moss around old tree stumps. The leaves are thick, very shiny, heart-shaped in opposite pairs. In the fall, berries form and become bright scarlet. Scarlet frunits remain on the vine all winter if not eaten by birds and deer.
The berries are tasteless but occasionally were useful as emergency food. The scientific name of this plant is Mitchella repens.

митчелла (и ниже)

p a r t r i d g e b e r r y (Mitchella repens), Североамериканское растение семмейства мареновых (Rubiaceae), растущее в сухих лесах от югозапада Ньюфаунндленда до Миннесоты и на юге Флориды и Техаса. Листя вечнозеленые, почти круглые размером примерно 18 миллиметров (0.7-inch), часто с разнообразными белесыми линиями; достаточно небольшой стебель, часто беловатый и шершавый; цветы белые, часто появляются парами scarlet, edible but almost tasteless berrylike drupes.
The flowers occur in long-styled and short-styled forms, as in the primrose. The plant, also called checkerberry,
squawberry, teaberry, running box, two-eyed berry, squaw vine, and twinflower, is a good wild-garden plant for shady places. It is popular in winter terrariums because of its diminutive size and attractive colour contrast of
berries and leaves.

Additionally, you can use the following description of the respective family:
"...Two familiar genera of low
herbaceous plants native to temperate areas are bedstraw, or cleavers (Galium), with small flowers and
square stems, and partridgeberry (Mitchella), with twin four-petaled flowers borne at the end of each
stem."

The last is taken from the respective article "Rubiaceae" in Britannica.
