Hedge Bedstraw |
This perennial plant is common in hedgerows and climbs up
shrubs and hedges. The leaves are rather rough to the touch
because of bristles along the edges. It has clusters of tiny
white flowers, each just a few millimetres across, with four
petals.
This plant was used at one time to curdle milk for making cheese.
