We always called it ' sweethearts'~~~ probably due to it clinging etc.
Seemed a nice name. Can be a nuisance in the Border Collie's hair!!

I like 'Sweethearts" and haven't heard it before. But I did spend about 45
mins pullling the burrs out of our wire haired Jack Russell's coat a couple
of days ago. He was smothered in the things. I think we have to admit this
plant has seed distribution cracked!
