Trifolium campestre plant4
Introduced, cool-season, annual, low-growing, hairless legume, with prostrate to ascending stems. Leaves have 3 leaflets, each oblong to ovate and 8-16 mm long. The central leaflet has a distinctly longer stalk than the lateral ones. Flowerheads are dense, rounded clusters (8-15 mm long) of 20-40 yellow, inflated, pea-like flowers. Pods are oblong and 1-2 mm long. Flowering is in spring. A native of Europe, the Mediterranean and West Asia, it is found in pastures, woodlands and roadsides; although more common on roadsides than in grazed pastures. Usually found on coarse-textured low-fertility soils where groundcover is reduced. Generally only found at low densities in pastures. Provides good quality feed, but it is not very productive.
