Images of species taken amongst rocks on limestone grassland at Mount Wise, Devonport, Plymouth, Devon. 23.06.05; and in hedgerows across Devon and Cornwall.

This species hybridises with Galium vernum, Lady's Bedstraw producing the hybrid Galium x pomeranicum.

The main objective of this website is in furthering environmental awareness and education through the medium of photography. To increase awareness and access to the flora of the region and help

people find and identify it. Sometimes the difference between species is obvious but a few species may only be determined by observing microscopic differences that are characteristic to any one species.
