Galium trifidum
Galium trifidum is a species of flowering plant in the coffee family known by the common name threepetal bedstraw. It is native to most of northern and western North America from Alaska eastern Canada to Mexico, where it grows in moist habitat. It is a usually perennial herb forming tangles of thin stems up to half a meter long ringed with whorls of several linear to oval leaves. The inflorescence is a cluster of small white or pinkish flowers, each with usually three petallike lobes in its corolla.

Names and Taxonomy
Taxonomy
Comments: Kartesz (1994) treats infraspecific taxa within Galium trifidum at the subspecific level, but Scoggan (1978) treats them at the varietal level; they also have different concepts of taxa. Scoggan (1978) includes G. brevipes in G. trifidum var. trifidum, but Kartesz (1994) treats it as distinct.
