Rubia peregrina, commonly known as wild madder, is a herbaceous perennial plant species belonging to the bedstraw and coffee family Rubiaceae. It is mainly present in Mediterranean Europe, Great Britain and North Africa, and grows in thickets, bushes, hedges, stony grounds and along roads and paths. It prefers dry soils, at an altitude of 0–1,000 metres (0–3,281 ft) above sea level. It has a woody, hairless, square and climbing stem, and evergreen leaves that are sessile, glossy, leathery, oval-lanceolate and toothed on the margins. The small flowers have five petals and are pale green-yellowish, about 5–7 mm in diameter, and the fruits are fleshy green berries, black when ripe, about 5 mm (0.20 in) in diameter.
