Cleaver - Galium aparine

Cleaver - Galium aparine
Lots of different names for this one mainly to do with the sticky way it clings to most things.
 Also one that has been used as a medicinal & food plant in the past.
These are the seeds and you can see how they spread so easily.

  1. It's fairly amazing. This is what we call the same species. Lots of times you have different common names, or we have the same common name for a different plant.
