Quick Facts Scientific classification, Binomial name ...

It is similar in appearance to non-native Trifolium pratense, but can be distinguished before blooming by longer petioles and lack of pubescence (hairs) on the upper surface of the leaf.[4] Unlike related species Trifolium reflexum, it grows best in highly basic limestone soils.[5]
