Tomcat Clover
Growing between 6-24″ tall, trifolium looks like a typical clover, but with extra long (2″) leaves. The scientific name willdenovii refers to the German botanist Carl Ludwig Willdenow (1765-1812). While the common name for this dainty annual may have been inspired by an imaginative gaze at the tiny feline faces within rose and white bloom.
This common plant blooms in open grasslands, and makes a sweet addition to any sunny garden.
Trifolium Clover is great for a bird garden and a butterfly garden. Tomcat clover in particular attracts Orange Sulphur, Bay Checkerspot butterflies.
