Extract

Bedstraw (Galium mollugo L.) is a deep-rooted perennial weed present throughout New York and many areas of the northeastern United States and Europe. It occurs in pasture, meadows, waste areas and along ditch banks and roadsides. This weed assumed importance comparatively recently and almost concurrently with the increasing popularity and widespread use of birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.).
