Oregon bedstraw
Galium oreganum
Oregon bedstraw is a low-growing Pacific Northwest native groundcover that naturally carpets shaded woodland floors with delicate, whorled foliage and tiny white flowers. It requires very little maintenance once established and is ideal for filling in under trees or along shaded pathways. Keep soil moderately moist and avoid full sun, which can scorch the foliage.
