Cleavers' flowers are tiny (2-3 mm across), star-shaped, with two green carpels covered with hooked hairs joined at the base of the flower; four white, pointed petals; four stamens; and two styles. The fruit is a spherical capsule formed from the carpels, covered with stiff, hooked hairs, each carpel containing a single seed.

Plant Finder Glossary

I want to acknowledge the work of a friend and colleague, Dr. Fred Donner. We both share a passion for the flowers in Jackson Park. Fred's website (jacksonparkwildflowers.org) inspired me to build my own website and database; use and enjoy them both.

I am also pleased to thank my ninja web gurus and coders, Lindsey Young and Stefanie Engstrom. This site would not exist without their herculean labors.
