Galium palustre
Template:Short description Template:Speciesbox
Galium palustre, the common marsh bedstraw[1] or simply marsh-bedstraw,[2] is a herbaceous annual plant of the family Rubiaceae. This plant is widely distributed, native to virtually every country in Europe, plus Morocco, the Azores, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Western Siberia, Greenland, eastern Canada, St. Pierre & Miquelon, and parts of the United States (primarily the Michigan and the Northeast, but with isolated populations in Tennessee, Montana, Washington and Oregon). The species is classified as a noxious weed in New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont and New Hampshire. It is considered naturalized in Kamchatka, Australia, New Zealand and Argentina.[3][4][5][6]

It is a component of Purple moor grass and rush pastures - a type of Biodiversity Action Plan habitat in the UK.
