Galium triflorum (common name Sweet-scented Bedstraw) is a herbaceous plant of the family Rubiaceae. It exists in creeps along the forest floor, with whorled leaves and single fruiting peduncles rising above basal rosettes. There are six leaflets in a whorl below the peduncle. Each peduncle has three fruiting structures, each having a single fuzzy ball. Stems are square. The entire vine does not feel very coarse, but it is rough enough to stick to clothing.
