Galium genus of annual and perennial herbaceous plants in the family Rubiaceae , with about 400 species occurring in the temperate zones of both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres . Most species are known as bedstraw .
The Field Madder (Sherardia arvensis ) is a close relative and may be confused with a tiny bedstraw. Asperula Galium (such as woodruff ) are occasionally placed therein.
Bedstraws are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species. See list of Lepidoptera that feed on Galium .
Uses
Galium, or Ladies' straw, was used as a red dye during Anglo-Saxon times in England. (see Anglo-Saxon Crafts by Kevin Leahy, p75-76)
Selected species
