Lady’s Bedstraw is botanically known as Galium verum, and the herb belongs to the Rubiaceae family. The genus name Galium is taken from the Greek language and it means milk, possibly referring to its use in curdling milk.

Among several herbs carrying the popular name bedstraw, Galium verum— or lady’s bedstraw — wields a coumarin scent that possesses the power to repel fleas. All of these plants were used to stuff mattresses, but the wealthy — the lords and ladies of Merry Olde England — apparently had the privilege of using the true natural insect repellent. Thus, the name “lady’s bedstraw.”

There is another legend associated with this plant’s moniker. In medieval times this botanical was referred to as Our Lady’s bedstraw as it was thought to have been part of the sweeter-smelling manger grasses upon which Mother Mary laid the infant Jesus. This common and attractive plant was also known as Frigg’s grass in Scandinavia, named after the goddess who watched over pregnant women who employed this versatile herb to ease childbirth.

Native to Europe and Asia, this herbaceous perennial grows between 2 to 4 feet high. Bright yellow flowers bearing a mild scent of honey appear in dense clusters between July and September. The root is used to make a stunning dye the color of red coral, while the flowers and flowering stems yield an attractive yellow food dye. In days long past, this herb was known as maid’s hair, as women placed it under their caps to turn their hair blonde.

Other common names – Yellow Bedstraw, Frigg’s Grass, Cheese Rennet, Curdwort, Yellow cleavers,Cheese Renning, Maid’s Hair etc.

Apply the paste on the desired area, cover it with a gauze and let stay for at least one hour, or overnight.
