Description: Photographic study by Paul James of Cleavers or Goosegrass, Galium aparine, and the tenacious hooks on the stems, leaves and seeds of the plant.
A brief peep into the world of the cleavers and their tenacious clinging capacity Most of us find at some point in mid to late summer, small pea sized fluffy nodules clinging to our trousers, socks, or shoe laces, after walking through some undergrowth. The source of these is of course the cleaver (Galium aparine), also known as 'goosegrass', which is extremely common and fast growing in the UK, often causing much anxiety to gardeners.
