Trifolium glomeratum flowerhead NC3
Description :
Description: English: Introduced, cool-season, annual legume, with sprawling stems to 35 cm long. Leaves have 3 leaflets, each oblanceolate to obovate, hairless and finely toothed. The central leaflet has a distinctly longer stalk than the lateral ones. Stipules are small but conspicuous, membranous or papery, striate, short-bristle-tipped, persistent, clasping the stem at the base and partly fused to the petiole. Flowerheads have no stalk, are ball-shaped (8-10 mm wide) clusters of more than 20 pink pea-like flowers. Pods are oblong and 1-2 mm long. Flowering is in spring. A native of Europe, the Middle East and North Africa, it is found on roadsides, wasteland, lawns and natural pastures. Usually found on coarse-textured low-fertility soils where ground cover is reduced. A very minor component of pastures. Provides good quality feed, but is not very productive. Responds to increased fertility and grazing in late winter to early spring. Date: 30 November 1899. Source: https://www.flickr.com/photos/73840284@N04/10621533383/. Author: Macleay Grass Man.
