Stems are erect or decumbent. Leaves have 3 leaflets; leaflets are obovate, 8-15 mm long x 6-10 mm wide and finely toothed. Flowerheads are rounded heads, about 20 mm wide and 20-40-flowered. Flowers are pea-like and 15-17 mm long, with pink to purple petals. Pods are 1-seeded and included in the calyx. Flowers in spring. A native of southern Europe and northern Africa, it is a sown pasture legume. Adapted to mildly acid and alkaline sandy-loam and loam soils. A productive forage and tolerant to heavy grazing in medium-low rainfall areas. Suited to self-regenerating ley systems or short-term phase farming. Produces high yields of seeds with low-medium levels of hardness. Ideal companion plant in mixtures with other legumes such as subterranean clover or serradella. Date: 1 January 1980, 00:03:15.
